Over a decade ago, when Peter Barron started removing poison ivy for a living, he decided to document his work.
"Every year I always take pictures of the poison ivy as it's blooming," said Barron, who is better known as Pesky Pete, of Pesky Pete's Poison Ivy Removal.
He still remembers the photos he took of the very first tiny, red, shiny poison ivy leaves popping out in Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire where he works.
"When I first started, it was May 10 or May 11," he remembered. "I was so excited. I was like, 'Wow, the season is here.' "

The Earth has had warming and cooling. So stupid California wanting to sue oil companies for global warming? California, reparations, carbon taxes, gender affirming care, and being Bizarro world in the science of stupid? A few months ago I went to an actual History Museum and it showed the tree line tens of thousands of years ago that was a lot lower because of being in the last glacial period but then I also saw that thousands of years before that, the tree line was higher. The tree line is now in the middle. So how did the earth warm on its own without fossil fuels and without man to intervene? So it makes no sense for stupid AOC and others saying that we have 10 years till Doomsday.

Air temperatures in the European Alps during the Last Interglacial were up to 4C higher than at present, which could suggest amplified warming at high elevations, according to fluid inclusion data from Swiss speleothems.
