This may sound silly but hang with me. I have been nurturing a gorgeous lawn (RTF) for 40 years. It is lush and emerald green. Well, until last year. In April, when things begin to wake up in New England, huge patches of my lawn turned straw yellow, and the grass was dead. Later in the spring, when my six big hydrangeas bloomed, they were blue. They had been bright white for decades. Any amateur gardener knows that the color of hydrangeas can be turned from white to blue/purple by adding aluminum oxide to the soil to acidify it. Grass likes alkaline soil, and white hydrangeas like alkaline soil. Acidic soil can kill grass and cause hydrangeas to turn blue. But this didn't just happen to me, it happened all over my town. Coincidentally, upon reviewing the website for MakeSunsets.com. I saw that their largest amount of sulphur dioxide by far was in April of 2024. Maybe not a coincidence?
This connects all the dots. I have a 1/2 acre strawberry patch that produced virtually no crop last year. As I tried to determine the issue to no avail I realized I saw very few pollinators during my growing season. I then discovered that chemtrails scare them away. Note: autocorrect refused to spell out the word. 🤔
My yard is carpeted with dandelions and small purple flowers, as it is every year, but this year there are NO bees. I have a couple of wasps attempting to build a nest in my chicken coop, which I always leave in peace, and once they recognize me they leave me alone. But the lack of bees is extremely concerning.
Same thing with our coop, but ours look like honeybees (neighbor has honeybees). They've been in twice the past couple weeks and leave at night. First year where the coop has had bees in it. Strange...
That would help to explain why everyone's gardens were 'sparse' at best. We thought there wasn't enough nutrients in the soil, but what you identified, JJ, that certainly adds another plausible dimension to the problem. Only the small patch of potatoes, small area of strawberries and the herbs did okay. The rest looked like we watered them with electrolytes, because Gatorade has electrolytes in them...
Last spring/summer (2024)the rain felt very different on our skin- makes you say “Huh?”
But then our cucumbers were bright yellow, fresh tomatoes tasted like they had come out of an old can. The watermelons literally tasted poisonous, etc…
I still thought “maybe it is our soil?”…but it turned out the other backyard gardeners had the same issues…
I have been praying for the new EPA people to put a stop to poisoning ‘we the people’ by poisoning our air and soil.
I have been trying to make sense of my observations here in England. I noticed no chemtrails until 2021. But had been very puzzled by widespread haze that was especially severe in the 1990s. It was active especially in hot weather. I'm wondering if sulphur release would be the explanation.
Looking further back, in the 1970s, blue sky was milky blue and not clear blue. Now I wonder why.
I do very specifically remember that the BBC 'warned us' that eventually the sky would always be white and overcast. The explanation being that the planes dump too much water vapour in the upper atmosphere where it doesn't belong, and can't get down again [eyeroll]. Looking back, I can recognise the fearporn they were using to try to get people to believe it. So this agenda to block out the sun has been around for a long time, and climate change invented as an excuse. In inability to accept such wickedness being the cover.

Thank you, Lee Zeldin for starting somewhere.

I wonder if your neighbors bees are looking for a new home.
Good point.... I will have to check with him.
Same here in SWMO. I’ve got a big, fragrant bush that is in full bloom. It normally hums with bees. Just a couple of lonely butterflies this year. 😕😮
Oh, that's really disheartening, QH. I hope they arrive soon.
Oh! Lack of pollinators!

I see what you did there. Electrolytes. Nice.
Wow this is insightful and interesting.
I know!
I live in south central KY.

Wow. In living color.

Rosie, I'll be in Polzeath, Cornwall, in June/July. I'll keep an eye on the sky.
