Geodesic Greenhouses.

These are finally coming into their own which is great news. First off, I have never been a fan of the conventional greenhouse. It really constrains you to row systems and limits your options and it is expensive to .make comfortable. a dome such as this avoids having to bend under the edge areas and other potential contortiions. I also note that these designs are small but still allow you full access.

Putin offers to send gas to Germany again. As public turn against covid jabs, Germans can use scandal, to remove WEF governments, von der Leyen, start peace negotiations

On the verge of blackouts, deindustralization, nuclear war, and in the middle of a public health disaster caused by the covid vaccine, we urgently need politicians who will target the brains, the funders, the organisers of the Great Reset to remove them and start new policies.
