Oct 28 Harvest report

[chuckChuck]

Yeah it was and is a shitty harvest for many. The stress and worry is dangerous and depressing. All farmers have experienced some sort of issues over their career. Myself included. And it is not fun.

In my farming career we have had all kinds of extreme weather of different types.

Climate scientists have been saying there is a link between extreme weather events and climate change. And we should plan for more extreme weather.

When people start claiming the scientist are all wrong then we have a problem. That is just a lame weak excuse not to do anything.

Agriculture depends on good weather. To ignore what climate scientist are saying about serious changes to the earths climate is just plain foolish. Yes there are some benefits to a longer warmer growing season in a northern prairie climate. But there can also be a lot of losses and disruption.

Farmers have every right to be concerned about climate change and its impacts.

Listen to the scientists.

Yup then why isn't insurance changing along with the scientists advice....guys planted early and had a good start... were no further ahead at the end of the day with harvest....where is the government and grain cos on drying equipment if this is the new normal....why are farmers expected to bear the costs?

No other industry has been burdened with extra costs without government help. ...

AGT was given 117 million to repair the rail line they bought....

Morris Industries are on government money continually. ...

Why can't government look at potential drying sites and move on helping farmers....

Ever visit someone's home who has electric baseboard heaters in min 40 temps. You make an excuse to head home because of its cold outside. Reality is its cold inside their home.

I love our baseboard heaters since moving to MB. Turn the thermostat up and you can be as warm as you want with our cheap power. Much prefer it over the noisy gas furnace cutting in at all hours of the night - the permanent dehydration in winter and the dust everywhere.

Chuck, I remember back some 40 plus years ago out on Halloween in a Tshirt doing pranks.

A year later, we had a foot of snow, and all met at the sled shack for drinks.

So don't give me this climate is changing bullshit.

It's Canada its cold in winter warm in summer. Some years dry some cold.

**** wake up.

I have to admit Chuck I am looking forward "to a longer warmer growing season" because it hasn't happened yet in my neck of the woods. I remember reading back in early October when Manitoba had the big snow storm that the last time they had that much snow was October 7-8 of 1959. When I was a kid 40 years ago we started silaging usually right at the end of July. Driving silage truck was a very hot job as it seemed like it was +30 every day for the 2 weeks we silaged. The last few years I can't get 5 warm days back to back to put up hay! And this is central Alberta. So I am hoping that these longer warmer growing seasons materialize. Enjoy your day.

The "scientists" at this point, are very similar to the phucking parents that sit at the top of the bleachers at a hockey game, screaming what everyone on the ice should be doing, yet have no skin in the game. They are merely observing with rose colored glasses hoping to win the 50/50(a big check from the govt) maybe get on the kisscam for their 5 seconds of fame.

[SASKFARMER]

Macdon also remember those hockey parents in the stands get a big check the louder they scream.

Are you that dense that you can equate your personal anecdotal evidence as equivalent to the conclusions drawn by thousands of climate scientist's published and peer reviewed science?

If so you are an idiot.

So, then why don't you listen to the scientist's that say this has all been debunked, or that doesnt fit into the new world order agenda? I'll say it one more time, if your so serious about your cause then give it up, give up the natural gas, any use of internal combustion engines, only naturally obtained energy sources! Your one massive hypocrite, like all the rest, you rail against something you really know nothing about, brainwashed really, but still use it to benefit your life! Enough with the bullshit already. How in the hell has society come to this?

Show us the peer reviewed scientific evidence that proves humans are not causing climate change!

Have to admit I get very tired of the climate change debate. All I know is it is supposed to be -27 with the wind chill tonight, fml. I still have manure to haul and cows to get home. But one thing I am thankful for on a cold night like this is my natural gas furnace, certainly takes the chill off. Solar and wind are fine to reduce our use of fossil fuels but anybody who thinks in this climate that they can supply 100% of our energy needs is severely mentally challenged.

Hamloc read and learn something about Net Zero homes. There are several in Edmonton and Calgary. Checkout Landmark homes as they have a list of their Net Zero homes.

"Why choose a Net Zero Home?
Net Zero Homes produce as much clean energy as they consume. They are up to 80% more energy efficient than typical new homes and use renewable energy systems to produce the remaining energy they need. Every part of the house works together to provide consistent temperatures throughout, prevent drafts, and filter indoor air to reduce dust and allergens. The result: exceptional energy performance and the ultimate in comfort – a home at the forefront of sustainability. It all adds up to a better living experience.

That's not how science works. The ones making the claim must provide irrefutable evidence. The bigger the claim the more robust the evidence must be. And since both the science, the data and the on ground observations do not match prediction, it should be tossed, or remain a fringe theory.

The more climate scientists and govts keep pushing this, the more they weaken their own argument. The keep shouting and studying something that hasn't proven out yet. Sounds like the result being pushed before in the investigation.

If climate change was on the docket in the court room it would be tossed out in a heart beat.

Just a rewrapping of socialism again and it caught a lot of weak minds again.

Really interesting article in the National Post titled: Researchers say they have found the original Africa 'homeland' that nurtured humanity for 70,000 years. Interesting article in which they talk about why humans eventually left this area: "They abandoned this "homeland" when natural variations in the Earth's orbit caused it to "wobble" and affect the climate, drying up the wetland into what is now part of the Kalahari desert. At the same time, this climate change opened new green corridors through the desert that prompted the first human migration,". Good article.

Why are you using anything related to "climate change" or " global warming", or whatever new term they will come up with next. I'm against pollution, looking at the garbage in china, India, Indonesia and the like is sickening. I really cant believe that our recycling cant be better than what it is either, but enough is enough already. You guys love to answer questions with questions. You are the true left, pound your ideas into someone, if that doesnt work resort to violence, threats and intimidation. Just look at the group on here. The cut and paste stuff is just as bad. Furrow was right. Where do you guys find the time to scour the internet for it, and when something you do find fits your narrative, it's the truth! Its october 29th and a near blizzard, winter is here in october again! But that's the way it goes.

And did you notice the climate radicals are the biggest hypocrits like our PM. Scientists are socialists too so it makes sense they further this agenda.
