One poster says that there are high levels of CO2 in the atmosphere as a result of burning fossil fuels. BUT, did that poster once consider or account for things like wildfires, volcanic activity, and natural decomposition of plant and animal matter?
How about another predicting that we are running out of fresh water? Really? That is the most renewable resource on earth. The best part is that it is all taken care of automatically!
Take into account that most of this hysteria over climate change is just that. Hysteria! Yes, the climate is changing. Just like it has been doing since the formation of this planet. Making silly gestures about controlling it is mostly an effort to control individual lives. Turn down your thermostat in the winter. turn it up in the summer. Buy smaller vehicles with better fuel economy. Ban plastic. Outlaw coal. Force electric companies to give preferential treatment to solar and wind generated power. And, the most insipid of all - "carbon footprint."
So, some folks get all uptight about all of this. What can you do about it? In reality, nothing. For every ounce of pollution you prevent, somebody in some other industrialized nation is replacing the little bit that you saved with 10 times as much. The Paris Accord is a good example of that. We reduce our carbon emissions at a cost of billions of dollars over the next 10 years to save about what China emits in about 2 weeks. And, this is fair?
How about this: We live in the cleanest country on earth with the lowest emissions of any industrialized nation on earth. The USA is the world's inventor and innovator.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
