Okanagan growers watching the weather, counting the days to spring one year after killer cold snap

[Castanet News]

Orchardists and wine producers in the Okanagan Valley are anxiously watching the weather. It was one year ago this week that crops were devastated by a sudden...

Wineries are also adapting.

Does getting $65M from the province to replant the same non-hardy grape varieties count as "adapting?"

Must be nice to be in the wine industry! They have record breaking years making nothing but money, then they have one crappy year and get millions of dollars in handouts from the government $177 million in 2024 to be exact. When they are having the best years do they give consumers a break on pricing no! So why would we be responsible for the handout with our tax money! Meanwhile residents can’t afford groceries or medication or rent but yes let’s save the winery owning millionaires!

They keep doubling down on the climate change scam and people keep biting. If you are interested in truth then look up Tony Heller. He has a massive collection of records from entities such as the IPCC, NOA and every other group of climatologists that they have been conveniently leaving out of the data they show us now. He only uses their published data nothing more nothing less with the exception of stories and headlines from magazines and news outlets from the past. One can easily see how they have always sensationalized the weather and how none of their predictions or forecasts ever came to pass.

Yet nowadays they have duped a massive part of the public into believing that if we give the government heaps of our money they can change the climate. People need to look at the climate record from the 1930's when we saw temperatures north of the 60th parallel up to 30 degrees Celsius and temperatures across North America were scorching, yet we never hear one iota about this! Why? because it does not fit the narrative. Carbon is the lowest it has been in millennia and if it gets too low life on earth will cease to exist. No one seems to understand that carbon is as important to life as oxygen.

If people actually look at the carbon record (which requires that you go and look for it) one would see it has been far higher in the past and humans were not the cause as there was no industrial revolution yet. Weather extremes are cyclical and they purposely don't go further back in the climate record because it would show that these fluctuations have happened in the past.

The government has not been able to even fix the homeless situation! What would lead someone to believe that they can fix the weather! Pure fantasy that is destroying peoples ability to make it from one paycheck to the next. If you don't go an look for the truth on your own, you will never know it. Their own records prove their deception and they are doing their best to scrub those records so that you can never see them.

Doesn’t he write under a pseudonym, and has a masters in electrical engineering. Not sure how that makes him qualified in climatology.

Not sure, but I think most of the equipment used today to manipulate the weather has a lot of electrical engineering evolved.
