Historic numbers of salmon return to rivers and streams from Alaska to California. The fish came back, they just couldn’t stay away following the marvellous restoration of their ocean pasture by a man many proclaim is a geoengineer but others regard as a combination of Johnny Appleseed, John Muir, and Henry Thoreau.
“We’ve got freaking pinks everywhere and it is ridiculous,” said Brett Barkdull, a state Fish and Wildlife biologist. “They are still in the rivers and everyone is growing tired of catching them.”
The New Scientist magazine says the IPCC call for “geoengineering” is a call to create the largest industry in human history. The proof is at hand that what we need to create is a one of the smaller industries in human history.
Au contraire New Scientist, we just need 100 tiny villages working on a common summer “dream” job. More like the smallest industry in human history!
