Let's use The Bark from Redwood Trees to Prevent Weeds instead of RoundUP! We use Bark in our garden and it works great. AND! It doesn't kill people... It's a One Time Cost for the Farmer and the Money is Kept within the State of California... Currently, a Giant Barge of Redwood Bark and wood chips Leaves Eureka, California Every Week headed for China... We also ship entire logs... They don't want the logs sawed up into boards because they have their own sawmills... and it's cheaper to employ Chinese Slaves to do the Work.

Farmers have to pay for RoundUP every year and The Costs of all those Lawsuits MUST be passed on to the Farmers and the people that buy the Food. AND! We Eat That Poison! We could have healthier Food if we just used Redwood Bark and Wood Chips to Prevent Weeds.

BIOMASS Electric Power Plants Could Dispose of the Millions of Dead Trees in California that are a Fire Hazard. Before we have another Disastrous Wildfire like we had in Paradise last summer, we could remove the fuel from the forests and use it to generate electricity.

"The number of biomass plants, another option for disposing of trees, has fallen to about two dozen from 66 in the 1990s, in part due to the expiration of government price subsidies." - according to the California Energy Commission.

Why not REOPEN those unused BIOMASS plants and clean up our forests before we have a Disaster?

Solar Desalinization Project - Makes Pure Water, Salt and Electricity.

When the Steam cools, it falls from the sky as rain.

Create distilled water with this giant Solar Desalinization Machine. Black Pipe to be at least One Foot Diameter. Steam condenses into rain. Climate Change Cooler, Wetter. http://vandergreg.blogspot.com

Solar Desalinization Project

Solar Desalination would change Seawater into Steam + Salt + Electricity. Generate pure Water for plants, livestock, drinking, bathing, washing cars or creating perfect ice cubes for a Scotch on the Rocks... Since this is distilled water, there maybe there is a way to bottle it and sell it to factories or Nestle... It could be the base for a series of beverages with natural flavorings... fennel for a licorice taste or cinnamon, nutmeg, tea, lemon peels etc. etc. etc.

Please share this information... If we built a hundred of these Solar Desalination plants all along the coast of California, Oregon and Washington we could create a moist rainy climate downwind. Much better than wildfires.
