That is very dangerous. A large proportion of the human race is doomed if that identification is correct. Only advancing technology, directed to the aim of decarbonization, will save us. Horses and carts won't help, electric cars with electricity from sources that don't emit carbon might.

I hope that it is repeated, as it offered time and space to think about our environment; something that is often in short supply. One criticism? Not enough straw as the entrance was a serious mud attraction for our boys!

I enjoyed some of the talks, for example the one on the Druids (the pagan ones, not our Gorsedd) and Twm Morris on 'tribannau Morgannwg' (Glarmorgan triplets). They also had a great deal of folk music and just a very relaxed atmosphere. Nathan, the organiser, provided interpretation in English in addition to all the other work he was doing.
