        Massive planting of trees, shrubs, and fruit-bearing vines would make it possible to begin selecting the varieties best suited to the climate. Approaches such as forest gardens, agroforestry or syntropy, and permaculture—along with techniques like Keyline design, bio-intensive market gardening, extensive or rotational livestock farming, conservation field crops, and carbon farming—appear to be the most suitable.

 The layers are described as follows: 
1. Canopy (large fruit and nut trees) 2. Low tree level (dwarf fruit trees) 3. Shrub layer (currants and berries) 4. Herbaceous layer 5. Soil surface (ground cover crops) 6. Rhizosphere (roots and fungi) 7. Vertical layer (climbers and vines)

                So yeah. I'm thinking the might be too hot and sunny for potatoes. The ones I'm growing in containers at home (and move to the shade when it's hot) are doing a lot better...

                Excerpt: "Temperatures above 86 will stop green growth and temperatures above 95 will stop root growth in potatoes. An average daytime temperature over 85 degrees during the primary growth stage, the first 2 months, will cause poor growth and a low yield for potatoes."

                "Potatoes are an important crop for us. They are the earliest producing high-calorie crop we grow, but what about planting them late?

                Potatoes can be planted early-mid summer in cool regions. They will grow fast and yield well as long as the weather doesn’t get too hot. Potatoes can be planted as late as June and early July and still get a full harvest before winter. Potatoes need 90 to 110 days before frost to fully mature."

                    NE Pacific Gray whale population plunged catastrophically over the past year, with up to eight thousand whales perishing in that period. There are only about 13,000 remaining. Deaths are accelerating due to loss of food sources caused by climate change.
                    Gray whales were removed from the Endangered Species List over 30 years ago after population rebounded. Trump has severely weakened the ESA. It is unlikely that federal government will act to protect these massive marine mammals.

                                                                        "As Diamond argues, each of those civilizations arose in a period of relatively benign climate conditions, when temperatures were moderate and food and water supplies adequate. In each case, however, the climate shifted wrenchingly, bringing persistent drought or, in Greenland’s case, much colder temperatures. Although no contemporary written records remain to tell us how the ruling elites responded, the archaeological evidence suggests that they persisted in their traditional ways until disintegration became unavoidable."
