What? 90% is beyond fucking alarming. Not since 1955 has it been that bad according to the article?
Is it one more thing that is the result of climate change and these destructive weather patterns? I don’t know.
Peaches grown here in the Northeast taste better anyway, probably due to the fact that they’re not from the South.
