Question for the new-diseases community:
#ticks #LymeDisease #pandemics #disease #disability #crippling #HorrorStory #arachnids #SpidersWeeFriends #BigRedBlotcthes #LifeChanging #Arachnology #dogs #pets #sheep #cats #deer #cattle #farming #farmers #children
Is the increasing number of ticks related to the decreasing number of birds, itself related to climate change?
What are we to do about the ticks??

Farmers in tractors are protesting in Whitehall because of cheap food imports

They are saying substandard imports of food, some of which is grown with chemicals, is undercutting the market.

Now, if only we were members of a common European Agricultural Policy where quality and price were determined, we and they might be better off.

Oh, wait ....

"The head of the IPCC has compared the rollout of carbon capture and storage (#CCS) to "trying to push water uphill," questioning a technology that the oil and gas industry has long touted as integral to net-zero emission plans.

The International Energy Agency has previously called for the oil and gas industry to let go of the "illusion" that carbon capture is a solution to climate change, pushing instead for energy majors to ramp up investments in clean energy."
