Tarrel & HL apart from you guys learning the need to start learning how to hunt Polar Bears and Seals I noted on Discovery last night the show called Flying Wild Alsaka and the main characters had to deliver a new stove to this remote lodge facility high in the artic wilderness. What totally astounded them ( and remember half the family of the Twetos are Inuits) was the lodge owners were growing spuds, cabbage and winter wheat among other things quite successfully but with a lot of planning. So hope springs eternal ??

That sounds like a good show. Haven't got Discovery Channel unfortunately. I'll look out for it on YouTube.
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.

That series of `Flying Wild Alaska` has just finished up here, we are looking forward to the new series, I read somewhere that it will be on soon, but have not seen any advertisement for it yet

Since finding SUK, my telly watching has dropped off to almost zero, where it used to be all that I did. That programme though, is one that I've stayed with. Watching those guys land in a fierce crosswind, crabbing in at almost 90 degrees to the runway - amazing!
Watching the old fella too, landing that ancient bush plane of his in spaces not much bigger than a spread-out bedsheet... it's one of those 'not to be missed' progs!

Looks like I'm on the wrong site. I don't believe in the Anthropogenic Global Warming that is spouted by the politicians and discredited scientists.
I believe the planet's climate changes at the behest of the sun and we are arrogent in our own capabilities if we think we have done this and can fix it.
The AGW scam has been coming off the wheels for a while now as the dates are passed with no sign of the devastation predicted. All that marks the event is a new dire prediction and, you can't say they have not learned, dates so far in the future we won't see them.
We can't even predict the weather for a few months away, how do we do it for 50 years.

Just wondering, what kind of predictions time wise are we looking at here, ie. as far as a catastrophic scenario is concerned??
