To forage the right environment needs to be available . Over here 3 billion trees planted by 2050 to improve our carbon balance is suggested. We have enough land to grow food. Imagine if a % those trees were fruit trees . It is suggested 20 % of arable farm land is given over to trees. Plus a programme of intensive planting in public places.
 
Thats rich after your post about Canada's percentages.

No problem.

Best country to live in

Half the population is stoned...legally,

And we all like the outdoors and drive our Audi's like ladies and gentlemen.

What it doesn't have is the idiot BMW driver's stats.

We are welcoming, fun, intelligent, ridiculously good looking and have healthy teeth.
 
This Trudeau brown face business is hilarious, couldn't happen to a nicer ****.

The rub is that I assume he did that years ago - I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Boris does the same sort of thing every Tuesday evening, whilst dressed in his best SS Uniform, shagging a pigs head at the Bojos Burrington Boys Club.

What's Boris got to do with it ?

It's the delicious irony of the self styled King of Wokeness being hoist with his own petard that I find gratifying.
How long do you think he has been thinking.... 'any day now those pictures will come back to haunt me'... Lol. He should take a leaf out of Trumps book and say it was the light bulbs that changed my skin.
