  1. The Sherkin Island Fishing Boat

    A fishing boat with the registration code C353P sits moored in the low-tide mud in Sherkin Island. It sits opposite the island library and has been a feature of the island for as long as I remember. However, it was missing during a visit in 2017, and this gallery of Sherkin Island photos shows an empty space where the boat should be! A blog post here from 2016 shows the boat back in place, so maybe someone took the boat out during my visit in 2017?

    Now I would like to know more about this boat. Who owns it? Does anyone take it out for a spin any more?

    You’ll also find photos of this boat elsewhere, including this article about a Ukrainian family who settled on the island. It’s also featured in a painting created in 2012, but it’s sitting on a dock somewhere, possibly local.

  2. Red algae will NOT eliminate livestock as a problem for combating climate change.

    The U.N. has a report stating that the livestock industry contributes more to the greenhouse effect than *transportation*.

    One reason is methane.

    It was hoped that mixing seaweed into livestock feed would cut methane emissions. Earlier studies showed 90% reductions and higher.

    However, this latest and longest running study only showed a 28% reduction.

    A guaranteed way to reduce methane emissions from the livestock industry is to minimize meat consumption. Eat less meat.
