A Note to Readers
This week’s Feature, illustrated by the above photo, is a farmer/chemist’s repudiation of the CO2 scare that drives the policy of the Biden administration’s hysterical policies and fear-mongering that has completely dislocated the possibility of real human progress to uplift the planet’s 8 billion people. The article: “Feature: Is the CO₂ Hoax Aimed at Our Food Supply?” is by two of my colleagues from LaRouche PAC.
With hundreds of articles this past week on the “snow drought” that has thus far been the weather for the western states, the first actual measurement of the Sierra snowpack has found that the snowfall, thus far this winter season, is just about 25% of the average for this date. Since California relies on its annual snowpack for about 30% of its water supply for agriculture and the cities, indeed, this is alarming. Though the state’s reservoirs are full, they will be very low by the end of the year. Praying for snow and rain during the next three months of the wet season for the state, may make one feel good, but it is the “Gods” alone who will or will not deliver.
The Colorado River, while also benefiting from last winter’s abundant snowpack, is also facing a snow drought in the Rockies thus far this winter, forecasters are writing that while shortages should be minimal this year, next year will be one in which the major reservoirs are again in a crisis condition.
The gazillionaires attempting to build a city that is the World Economic Forum’s ideal of a city of a dystopian future has further problems. A new article this week reports that all its top peoples’ foreign origins had been hidden (until now) in this attempt to turn a rural county into a nightmare.
The final item before the Feature is an article titled, “ What happened to Evs?”, and begins with this: “The sudden slowdown in electric car sales is a symptom of a much uglier problem.”
