What is the variety called? Where did you source the seeds? I grow several heat resistant varieties and I’m always looking to expand my seed collection.

And if this planet can't support life anymore, all the billions of people will die.

The climate change should stop and think of how its actions affect the economy.

Shouldn't it say "at lower latitudes on Earth"?

Oh yeah it was more an aside about how interesting it is for the f16 to be relevant and powerful in a large scale conflict still! When discussing US strategy they are often discarded as obsolete

I'm not so sure about China trying to forcibly take Taiwan without something significant changing. Namely a withdrawal of US support for Taiwan. Unlike some countries, the US does not make idle military threats. China would have to commit to an amphibious landing. Such landings are one of the most dangerous operations for any military. To do so without air and naval superiority is utter suicide.

The climate is incredibly important. Our "made up" system of trade is also incredibly important. A collapse of either of them would leave most of us dead or impoverished.

Kinda takes care of those “audits” that Russia’s supporters in the US Congress want to make sure the Ukrainians are receiving and using these weapons…

Yeah? We know? We gave it to them? It's literally an international announcement every time a country offers up weapons to Ukraine ... Why is Russia even commenting on this?

Is it just me or the news lacks any information about what is on the title but more on the ICC/Duterte issue. I wonder what the editor and writer were smoking to be so disconnected

> How do you measure the economy?
My ability to get food for some form of labor at the grocery store is a pretty good starting point.
I don't have a farm, so I'm wholly dependent on other people halfway across my country to grow my food for me. I trade my labor indirectly for that food. That's the economy.

The climate is an important thing independent of our made up system of trade.

How do you measure the economy? Economic growth as measured now is failing and causing people to die and will be the cause of everyone to perish. All for the sake and momentary needs of the few on top. Economists of the past century have failed us and were wrong completely at the most basic levels. If you want a healthy economy you need a healthy society and currently those things are not syncing up. We need to change how we measure the economy and what what we choose to emphasize when it comes to overall well being.
I am not exactly arguing or disagreeing with you, just elaborting on my point.

not really. Well parts of Europe may see colder seasons. This will not be an abrupt change but gradual.

I know, but F-16s are still in active use. Even though I like the F-22 and F-35 more, they'd try to send some F-16s.
