Having been reading and thinking about the post below on environmental concerns.
While we can debate the cause of it; I think we can agree that temperatures have been rising in the recent past. If they are still rising; leveled off; or we are now on decreasing temperature swing is unknown because we are talking long term research. I can not consider the fact that temperatures have risen in the past or we had ice ages because we could be on a natural temperature rise now and still be contributing to the problem; in turn accelerating the problem.
On the other hand; if we could prove beyond a shadow of a drought that man is the only cause of this temperature rise; still nothing will be done. We as a group are not going to give up our fossil fuels or other things attributed to the cause and go back to living like we did in the 1800's.
With temperature rise set aside; I think we are doing plenty more harm. It is just not talked about as much because there is not a buck to be made from talking about it.

Companies disposing of radioactive material on the hush hush because the proper person has been paid off and it is not common knowledge that the said company deals in this type material.
The introduction of foreign species (animals) into a country they are not native to destroying entire eco systems.
The man made altering of eco systems without knowing the full destructive value of said altering. Such as flood control levees that cut off natural flooding of bottom land. The manipulation of river courses to suit our needs even though nature pays for it.
Trying to purposely manipulate climate and rain of a area threw cloud seeding without understanding how this effects other areas long term climate.
The depletion of natural clean water sources to grow crops and raise farm animals on marginal or desert lands.
All of these will bite us in the but one day. But like anything else it is always.... I am whole heartily for conversion as long as you do it in somebody else's backyard.

Today's Featured Article - Trailering Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the fun things of summer and fall are the parades and tractor shows that go on across America. Many owners of tractors travel long distances to attend these shows and they usually take their restored iron along with them. Safe trailering practices and inspections will ensure that the event is a fun one. A good habit to develop when using a trailer is to give that ‘quick look over’ before taking it on a trip. Before hooking up to it check the tongue for proper operation. The latche
