Canada is a major importer of fruit, vegetables & fish. As more oil & gas is exported expect equal increases in the cost of food as the planet warms. BC could be self sufficient but our governments are allowing development on #ALR Land protected by the Barrett #NDP. #keepitintheground & #savetheALR

Did you see the solar panels? We promoted solar on rooftops & over livestock grazing on pasture. We established an Agricultural Land Reserve to protect our limited farmland & scientists warned of desertification of farmland in the south & millions moving north as climate changes. It's happening now.

No surprise. In 1972 BC elected a science based social-democratic govt. for 3 1/2 yrs. We held science conferences on energy, decided against nuclear, opposed supertankers on our coast, & supertanker ports, banned offshore drilling & new dams, promoted LRT & held a week long alternative energy show

This makes me want to cry….if only….the road not taken. Yet, shows what we can do when the political pressure and actual information gets through.

Grass grows very well under solar panels and grazing animals use panels for shelter from the hot sun in a warming climate.

As the cost of food rises due to drought in food producing areas and parts of the world have food shortages golf courses should be farmed. Livestock and some crops do well combined with solar farms.

That's for sure, but until more of my friends move over I'm posting on both sites.
