I can't imagine it's going to be any better. I'm not sure I even find US/Can doing enough as is.

When we have a disease like bird flu roll through our herds, it seems like we just throw up our hands and say "oh well pasturing deactivates it"

But you still have a sick cow, even if they aren't obviously symptomatic. They will produce less, treatments for other stuff will be less effective, they will be less healthy. And at the scale of most farms, all that has an effect. It just gradually makes things harder for farmers.

Yeah the state of factory dairy's... You want that shit pasteurized. Feces everywhere. Cows have all kinds of diseases. Filthy environment. It all gets killed or deactivated by pasturing.

Incredible series. I'm glad we got Overload, even if it's not quite the same caliber

Theres only one type of mod that racked up 100gb of Skyrim mods. And it's not because of looting mods!

Next video, he's standing in a volcanic wasteland or something

"I'm here at what is widely considered to be the harshest, most inhospitable, shit hole of the planet. This volcano is irrelevant because I'm talking about..."

He pulls up a laptop and points it at the screen

"...4chan"

Definitely interesting that these honey bee keepers ended up pushing back against the bee crazy. Good for them.

In the US, honey bees are not native.

Plant native plants. Re wild parts of your yard. It's sad to see our bumble bee population diminishing, especially given how they are far superior pollinators.
