Climate Change? Nahhh ...

I'm shocked, etc.

Big oil is behind conspiracy to deceive public, first climate racketeering lawsuit says

 

Apparently during the days of Outdoor Life magazine, prominent people could go on record by making the Outdoor Life Conservation Pledge.
As there is no more print version of Outdoor Life and I am not prominent outside of my own little world, I'd like to publicly made my declaration here:

"I pledge to protect and conserve the natural resources of America. I promise to educate future generations so they may become caretakers of our water, air, land and wildlife."

I further challenge every SJ member who is an outdoorsman (and anyone else) to do the same.

 

Our Favorite 2022 Climate Coverage. (Some of It’s Even Good News!)

 

Done.

 

Is this Buffalo blizzard getting less coverage because an NFL game wasn’t affected?

 

Christmas? Skeleton staffs? National weather hangover (a whole week's worth of freeze stories preceding this)?

 

NPR has been doing a good job with it from the little I’ve been able to listen. They had a guy who opened his barber shop to let people ride out the storm.

 

Opinion | A Policy Renaissance Is Needed for Rural America to Thrive

 

Same idea. I don’t want to hear more strategies for rural America from the NYT via the Brookings Institute. There are plenty of brilliant people from the country with great ideas if you go to the trouble of finding them.

 

Reads to me like Brookings and the Times want to harness Mawmaw's local expertise and help her navigate all that federal money sloshing around.

This is reflective of an emerging model for resilient, equitable rural communities: put local assets to creative use, unleash entrepreneurial activity, share the benefits widely and retain the value locally. Yet Shamokin is still at the beginning of what will require years of work and investment.

 

I'd like to report a murder

 

There’s no way foreign EnviroBot knows that American colloquialism, but kudos to whichever of her brainwashing handlers wrote that tweet. /Alma
