  1. "I don't think he's got the minerals." Sycamore Gap accused kept wedge of wood as trophy, court hears WWW.BBC.CO.UK Prosecutors say two men deliberately felled the iconic and much-loved tree on Hadrian's Wall.
  2. stumps root WWW.EBAY.CO.UK These are the ultimate in stumpery royalty, choice of 2 to choose from, approximately 6 ft by 6 ft and approximately 1... 😀
  3. In the UK larger wild fauna was mostly destroyed many centuries ago so now its only the smaller animals or plant left to dissapear so it isn't very noticable when some rare orchid or bumblebee species goes extinct is it?
  4. I was not debating about what to do but the fact that he was denying its any problem that humans are now impacting nature so dramatically. For your points on the UK its cheating by offshoring most of the dirty processes atm so that 1% figure is abit of a lie, and you didn't have an answer to maintain agri yields without fossil fuels and fossil fert.
  5. How do you not class the ongoing mass human caused species extinctions as enviromental collapse for example or do you think that is fake news? I suppose similar has happened in the distant past but it was caused by super volcanoes or a meteor impacts. As for mass greening the desert is all very nice, but most westrn agri relies on both fossil fuel plus alot on fossil water reserves that are not suistainable...indefinetly Norman Borlung & the green revolution may have delayed the Malthus like predictions but thats doesn't mean such doom mongers could not be right longterm does it? Unless you belive in some technological future fixes? Already most world biomass is humans or there farm animals. Wild mammals make up only a few percent of the world’s mammals OURWORLDINDATA.ORG Livestock make up 62% of the world’s mammal biomass; humans account for 34%; and wild...
  6. They can also make good Fruit cages if you like berries
  7. I like the idea of this mini one thats truck mounted 🙂 https://video.aliexpress-media.com/play/u/ae_sg_item/4207224700/p/1/e/6/t/10301/5000134296633.mp4?from=firefox Having a herd goats/sheep about to recycle the suitable species of clippings also that would be the extra eco icing on the cake. Kommune should specify only plant goat friendly species!
  8. A suppose being 4 stoke a genny is less polluting than a 2 stroke and it might it also burn less fuel overall to do the same job...? TP have made a electric chipper says its can run 5hrs looks very slow though
  9. 60mm - is there a zero missing?
  10. EDIT oh its Fake news reality has got so mad now reality is stranger than fiction etc
  11. Spear & Jackson Ltd. : Catalogue of Saws and Tools : No. T3 : Spear & Jackson Ltd. : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive ARCHIVE.ORG 110 p., illus., 22.4 cm, trade catalog Here?
  12. Just 2 different variations - both called pollarding? Might it not still have a decent chance of growing back but it was probably lapsed for too long...? To attempt to get it such a lapsed pollard back into a pollard cycle im think its best done as a staged reduction until you get some new epicormic growth.
  13. Must be a very wide load looks a good space First tree on the left/wind turbine side has already being pruned back before in the past and could be again to the same points without issues reckon.
  14. I have 3 of theese as water butts they were going cheap many yrs ago at £50 each! https://shop.smithsofthedean.co.uk/recycled-1520-litre--330-gallon-water-tank-751-p.asp
  15. Yeah even all the cheapo brands of of the corded chainsaws are say a 2000w 240v motor. So most cordless saws won't cut anywhere near the same speed & not a chance with the budget ones...unless its on very small diameter stuff im guessing. The top of the range cordless stihl MSA300 is 2500w & 36v for comparison. So which one would win at a race cutting cookies im unsure.....?.
  16. Cordless will be a big downgrade from corded in cutting performance.
  17. Not wisteria could well be lilac. Mums know best!
  18. Ive got a handy hollow tree i chuck any dead chickens into.Saves digging a hole or whatever.
  19. Id just trim the tips & any crossing branches now at the height that suits you (Depends on how tall your ladder is for harvesting?) the remaining tree structure will thicken up after a few yrs. Propping up branches with "hazel cloth line props" etc is what I do or you could also consider thinning out the fruit.
  20. Loads of plantations about with the stuff it likes im wondering how realistic it is the above recommendations being enforced and effectively used across the whole area to control it. Could end up like in Germany/europe for the UK....fairly fast it seems? The climate /droughts etc seem critical Fighting a losing battle WWW.FORESTRYJOURNAL.CO.UK The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) has had a devastating impact on the forests of Germany. Rising...
  21. Insider trading ? reuters.com WWW.REUTERS.COM The art of the deal!
  22. Theres some hippy shit going spare in barrels 🙂 Couple who ran Swedish eco-resort say 158 barrels of human waste left behind was ‘very normal’ | Sweden | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Flemming Hansen and Mette Helbæk reject criticism of how they abandoned resort and fled to Guatemala
  23. A digger with cone/screw spitter would mash it up into bits.... Easier plus cheaper just to bury it though.
  24. The Broligarchy are also down , only Buffet saw it coming Bloomberg - Are you a robot? WWW.BLOOMBERG.COM
