Thunberg sailed on board the Malizia II, a 18 m (60 ft) racing yacht that was built for round-the-world challenges. Solar panels and underwater turbines generate the power for lighting and communication.”

I loved having a wood burning fire pit up north. I didn't use it much, however, due to the smoke it created prevented people from sitting around it, the wind blowing might spread it, and when you were done in the evening, you had to make sure it was totally out.

So switched to a propane fire pit, which is what I have here. Smoke smell doesn't bother me, but we are too close to each other in the event that it bothers my neighbors. However, my meat smoker hasn't seemed to bother anyone yet. In fact, I'm amazed at how much more I see them when I'm doing an all day smoke.

Two things that will kill the planet, deforestation and over population. Millions of square miles have bee bulldozed to plant corn and soybeans. Millions more for overpopulated growth.

Some interesting facts...

The US has been seeing a growth in forests over the last 25 years, at appox 0.3%/year...

Now they are being used by solar panels. No more food.
