Government Gone Wild: Proposed Greenhouse Gas Emissions Tax on Cows and Other Livestock

From the New York Times: The E.P.A. indeed issued an “advanced notice of proposed rulemaking” this summer that called for public comments on the idea of regulating greenhouse gas emissions from cars, as well as “stationary sources” — which, yes, would include cows and other livestock.

    I have been visiting your website and receiving your emails for some time now and I do not know how you find the time for all you do! I Own a B&B on the Harbour in Yarmouth N.S. and I find it difficult to get the time in my zone 6B garden. The summer months are busy with B&B guests and so I have to do the bulk of my garden work before June or after September. In Yarmouth, we consider ourselves truly blessed to enjoy the benefits of a 6B zone when the rest of our Province endures a less accommodating climate. We are truly a community of gardeners. There is a group of volunteers here that are planning a Garden and Landscaping show for May 1-3, 2009 called "BLOOMS BY THE SEA" Their website is www.bloomsbythesea.com and this show will have something for everyone. I know you have readers and members from Eastern Canada and New England and so if there is anything you can do to help spread the word about this new show, I would appreciate. E.D. in Beautiful Yarmouth, N.S.

    Harboursedge,

    Thanks for the heads-up. I'll have to check out your website for the show and hope others do too.
