ORIGINAL: RangerJoe Here is something else that can help Lake Erie as well as many other places: Cargill joins regenerative agriculture movement, sets goal for 10 million acres Company says it will help farmers convert farmland to regenerative practices. https://www.startribune.com/cargill-joins-regenerative-agriculture-movement-sets-goal-for-10-million-acres/572432302/?refresh=true While as a percentage of total acreage may be small, that is still a lot of land and it is a start. It takes small steps and then others can see how it is done and then join in. I could state more but then that could get political. I like the sound of it. We need to start using our supposed superior minds, and start doing things smarter, not 'just the same ole way'. Run a vehicle on turkey offal: Anything Into Oil Technological savvy could turn 600 million tons of turkey guts and other waste into 4 billion barrels of light Texas crude each year.

For further discussion, a pm. For something else to think about, in the 1890s there were about 2,500,000 people in New York City, New York State, USA and there were about 250,000 horses there which were eating and drinking. What those horses ate and drank came out the other end. Think of the pleasant fragrance in the muggy summers, with the flies as well, then a rain storm finally clearing it out to the East and Hudson rivers . . .
