Climate change: More CO2 in atmosphere produces low-quality wheat, rice

Honestly, I would think it would be just the opposite. CO2 is beneficial to plants, which absorb it and convert it to Oxygen. Supplemental CO2 is often used to increase plant growth and yields, so the idea that atmospheric CO2 be might harm plants or reduce yields seems to defy logic.

The Sun has produced a whole bunch of solar flares this week

#Hurricanes, #Earthquakes & #SolarFlares, oh my.

#TheSun has produced a whole bunch of solar flares this week. In addition to all the other crazy shit going down around the globe. Are you paying attention, end of the world prognosticators? You MUST have some great doomsday warnings to share with us after ALL THIS…or you just aren’t the cult leader you need to be to keep this faux jesus thing rolling, so my advice is, get out now before they force YOU to be the only one to drink the kool-aid. #justsaying

China plans to ban sales of fossil fuel cars entirely

Do you ever feel like the whole world is moving forward, embracing new, clean energy sources, while the USA, who should be leading the charge towards a greener future, is rapidly becoming the WORST industrialized nation on #CleanEnergy and #ClimateChange mitigation? When #China is more serious about fossil fuel elimination than we are, something is very, very, VERY wrong.

Earth Is Running Out of Sand, Apparently

Wait, what next?! Sand now? Is this a thing we really need to worry about? Running out of sand? Because, isn’t sand like one of those “infinite things”? You know…grains of sand…like the number of stars in the sky?
Hmmm…lately I’m rethinking a lot of those old childhood fibs I’ve been told. You know…the ones that make you think that things are not exactly what they really are.
So many it seems…. #LiesOurParentsToldUs #RunningOutOfSand
