Dandy lions and bees. So does everybody know that Google is said to have rented goats and got service from both ends on its lawns at it’s headquarters. That begs the question what other nuisance is employed against the grain of some people’s sensibility.
When coming to the environment one must be careful there is something in it to offend everyone and often it does.
So Bees…
There are literally hundreds of these little creatures that we call bees. Some are pollinators extraordinary which when it comes to some flowering weeds might put them on the wrong side of you. Manicured lawns often do better with lots of watering that seems weeds take advantage of it when there isn’t this much watering.

Painted lawns
Before we go silly with this there are good reasons for this endeavor as it relates to the environment.
One being :
Reflection
In the absence of naturally occurring coloration a substitute for light colors such as white over dark colors such as black will decrease the absorption of heat and promote the reflection of light and heat back towards space.This is a good thing especially in times when the white reflective pools covered in snow and ice are diminishing and showing dark ground that would love to absorb any heat that was available. As well painted panoramas of live trees may have a calming effect on some people as they walk about or drive about. You could test this theory by painting some relief of weedy ground maybe ad a goat. Some how this idea lacks comfort in my viewpoint. So that leaves the actual property Care at home that would have less of a permanence and be comforting in the fact that it can be managed and it’s not forever.
Firesafe courses
The province of British Columbia how often puts on fire safe courses and I know from experience that they’re easily questioned and open the discussions on what’s the best way to make your property fire safe and at the same time not inconveniencing the present ability of the property.
Window of opportunity
The time in the spring that dandelions are a nuisance is only compounded by the fact that they spread seeds however you can spread your seeds you can put them in a pile on the dry out nicely in the window pick them up and send them away and if you get big black plastic bags to deal with them they’re out of your control by for part of the time that they go to the landfill perhaps try a black polyethylene sheet a black polyethylene sheet glued out on the ground to absorb heat, place the dandelions and Weeds on it and just get an idea of how quickly they can be dried out in a way that makes disposal in a local burial pit practical.
A villain in puberty…
So in one sense we view this photo as a good thing.
.
Being blind to the fact this youngster could be nefarious conductor of heat you might say more everywhere please.No no weeds under concrete!
Yes, and this conductor doesn’t have an orchestra. It only conducts heat and cold and it’s up to you on how you employ it which it will choose to do. So you could plan it’s they so it wouldn’t be lost and lonely and it could be productive preserving heat for when you need it and conducting the cool 😎 when most beneficial to you. That’s also your value to begin it is like contractors city planners and more. The way you put these things out and the way you plant around them can be as planned as you want it to be.
Dandelions you be the judge..
So back to our main topic those dandelions, round up the cost of not buying toxic poisons and make a donation at your local outlet that offers these things or to organizations like mind it to you in your rebirth has a environmentally astute liver.

Suits the Country…
As reported by TechCrunch in July 2018, aviation currently accounts for four percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. With this flight, Norway announced plans to do their part to cut into that number and fly all short-haul flights from its airports on electric planes by 2040. While current models of the Alpha Electro G2 aircraft only seat two people, multiple companies around the world are working on plans to develop commercial-ready electric aircrafts. No commercial airplanes are currently in the production stages of development, but the officials believe they will be ready in time to be implemented prior the the self-imposed 2040 deadline.
Norwegian officials believe the goal is possible due to the layout of the country’s airports. Commercial airports are spread across the country but the vast majority connect via short flights on smaller aircrafts, making it a viable step towards the country’s goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Chevron oil running progressive research adds July 2021..
It is human to try, according to Chevron they are looking at everything from electric , solar , and fusion to diversify energy. It looks like one politician found a way to save the environment by getting at least a half century of use from a bush wheeled airplane here in Merritt BC, It is human to try, and every one can support future concerns in their own way. If it suits them and the country!
100 million cars off the road…
A concept that immediate relief may need 100s of millions of cars off the road may not be that far away for North America. Rotating seasons of use restrictions by imposing mandated even odd day licence plate use may be a proactive measure to curb consumption. That measure would surely produce reliable data on cause and effect. Something to think about on our next 50 degree day. Were all in this together!
Transit is an option, including air transit where it fits. The saying we will overcome this by hard work, and application of good morals , and a little belief may not work on the macro level but in spots it still flies.
2018 a record year for EV sales in he US.
A 64 % increase in electric vehicles in the US in 2018 added over 2 million EVs being used in the US. The world wide number of EVs is something over 2 percent. The current EVs can be enjoyed and have a stand alone carbon foot print about 3 time lees then fueled cars. Watts per meter value goes way down manufacturing from scratch and if you generate electricity where you are by burning fossil fuels. In any case they are enjoyable to some people and surely don not poison your immediate life space like fuel can. Norway came into 2021 with 49 percent of sales being electric this is somewhat by decree however the coercion is probably because it suits their situation, and the population agrees with it. That sort of thing does not fly as well in our North American culture. Choice still remains supreme.
Tesla sold 160,000 units in 2019
Tesla is still the driver in some of this, selling 160,000 units in 2019. The projection for the US is 20 percent of sales by 2027 how much of its share tesla will have is likely to decline with most manufactures having a EV product in the sales..
Cars in operation in the US.
At the end of the 4 quarter in the United States there were 281.4 million cars in operation. They did not punt to EV that quarter as they never have as yet in substantives way.
We recommend purchasing a n EV at this time as they can be very enjoyable safe and effective if you plan your consumption of power.
Enjoy an electric aircraft if you can.
The same goes for EV planes be an early opted person for a EV plane it should be enjoyable and maybe can replace your car. The first FAA approved EV plane was the Alpha Electro in 2014. It it had nothing to do with the Bob Cummings show in the 50s and 60s and everything to do with reality. What ever that is.
