One of the best-attended winter seminars offered by ecology-minded consulting firms is the one sponsored by AgriEnergy Resources since the late 1980s.  Here’s their detailed announcement, e-mailed to clients today: “Where did 2015 go?

One bit of doctrine brushed aside in the Church of Climate Change is that epochs of high carbon dioxide have generally been benign for civilizations, with abundant food supplies and even wine grapes growing in northern England. These warmer climates typically preceded, rather than followed, upswings in carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere.  The point is,
