Good people: "Earth Day Co-Founder Killed His Girlfriend, Shoved Her ‘Mummified Body’ In A Closet". Old news, but I like to highlight it on appropriate occasions - like Earth Day.
I celebrated Earth Day by picking up some scraps of sod that were dumped in a parking lot by the turf management company that takes care of the golf courses in my development, and repurposing it for use in my yard (which has terrible soil, and, consequently, a number of dead patches).
Catherine Salgado joins me in "celebrating" Earth Day: "‘Green’ Energy Is Toxic, Inefficient, and Unprofitable".
I've said it for a long time, Green Science is neither.
ReplyDeleteOnce you claim to be Saving The Earth!, you cannot be questioned.
That ain't science.
John McPhee quoted a line in his book Encounters With the Archdruid that radical environmentalists were like Druids: they worshipped trees and sacrificed people.
ReplyDeletePaco, those brown patches may actually be rabbit nests. The nests are just below the surface, unlike their European cousins who dig deeper. Tho you're not fond of bunnies, I know you wouldn't do them harm. So please take care when installing the sod. The momma and her brood won't stay.
ReplyDeleteDeborah: No, it's just solid earth with nothing growing on it, and no rabbits underneath it. And don't bet on the fact that I wouldn't do rabbits any harm. They do serious damage in the neighborhood. Naturally, my preference would be to trap them and release them somewhere - but only because shooting them might excite comment among the neighbors.
ReplyDeletePaco, I recommend a rabbit trebuchet... fling them into your neighbors' properties if they like the rabbits that much.
