I have another commentary for listeners. This time, I talk about climate change related large storms, like what is happening around the world right now, and how it is, according to climate scientists, is caused by excessive use of fossil fuels.

I relate some history of the fossil fuel industry and how things got started, and delve into how the current war in the middle east could cause the world to shut down if Iran shuts off the Straits of Hormuz.

I offer a lot to think about given what is going on right now. After the break, I read another chapter from The Priest, a dystopian future serialized story I have been closing these editorials with recently. A realistic look at one man's journey in the U.S. after everything collapses.

This is more of what the future of this podcast is going to look like. The interviews are nearly finished, with one more coming next Wednesday. Starting in November, I will be combining two podcasts under one name, The Village Oak Tree to try and offer myself a better work life balance. We'll see how that works out.
