Disappearing peat bogs

Just discovered peat bogs are a non-renewable resource.

They are if harvested properly.

Unless this is some kind of joke that I'm missing, in which case, carry on.

I would stay away from this topic. It's a quagmire.

According to an article in Slate the world consumes about 14 trillion tons of peat annually of which scotch production accounts for about 5-6 trillion. So while this is only about 0.1 percent of the global peat resource it is nonetheless worrisome as many turn to alternative fuels due to the rising cost of petroleum. So, in other words, scotch producers are creating a false narrative in an effort to incite scare-purchases to boost scotch sales.

Aren't you helping that narrative along by saying they're non-renewable?

Is Pete Boggs related to Wade Boggs?

Pete Boggs was a Special Forces bubba that won the Silver Star in Vietnam.. he hasnt disappeared yet.. but definitely not a renewable resource

Beat pogs...isn't that what grunts do

I take it back. I was mistaken. Peat Bogs is just Pete Rose and Wade Boggs' love child.
