Proudly Saying NO
ColoradoRight
by ColoradoRight  Yesterday 3:05 PM    1
 No, I do not want us to curb our natural resource exploration for the sake of the environmentalist lobbies. We need to find and utilize more reserves of oil, coal, and natural gas. No, I do not want the government telling me how or where to educate my child. No, I do not want the government involved in my personal health care. I can take care of myself. And I will take care of family and friends who need health assistance. No, I do not support killing fetuses, regardless of their stage of development. If we are not allowed life, then liberty and the pursuit of happiness are meaningless. No, I do not support the destruction of fetuses for scientific research, no matter how important a potential discovery may be. No, I do not want illegal aliens absorbing resources and influencing legislation designed for American citizens. Everyone is welcome in our home; just come in the front door. No, I do not want dictatorships to possess nuclear weapons. No, I do not want terro

Is There an Ecological Unconscious?
dcoda
by dcoda  2-4-2010   
 About eight years ago, Glenn Albrecht began receiving frantic calls from residents of the Upper Hunter Valley, a 6,000-square-mile region in southeastern Australia. For generations the Upper Hunter was known as the “Tuscany of the South” " an oasis of alfalfa fields, dairy farms and lush English-style shires on a notoriously hot, parched continent. “The calls were like desperate pleas,” Albrecht, a philosopher and professor of sustainability at Murdoch University in Perth, recalled. “They said: ‘Can you help us? We’ve tried everyone else. Is there anything you can do about this?’ ” The problem? Coal had been discovered and open pit mining with chemical explosives. The blasts occur several times a day, sending plumes of gray dust over ridges to settle thickly onto roofs, crops and the hides of livestock. Klieg lights provide a constant illumination. Trucks, draglines and idling coal trains emit a constant low-frequency rumble. Rivers and streams have been polluted.

 I am reading 'The Ecotechnic Future' by John Michael Greer, who likes to take long term views and consistently argues that transitional change is a gradual process which will have to be dealt with over a generation or two. Recently, the good Druid has become increasingly alarmed by systemic risks in the short term.

Obama Budget: Shows He LIED About Drilling For Oil In SOTU
merrie
by merrie  2-3-2010    2
  Sadly like most of the promises coming from this President this pledge came with an expiration date. Only this expiration had a short window, only five days. When President Obama sent out his budget, it showed a decline in revenue from oil land leases, meaning he planned to be more restrictive in allowing off-shore-drilling than before. ..... more Obama Administration has NO intention of opening up New Areas for Offshore Drilling http://bit.ly/8ZE2TE

The Saudi Arabia of Coal
BobbyRutan
by BobbyRutan  1-27-2010    1
 Every day (and tax dollar) we expend into mitigating the colossal external costs of coal, and into the new bridge to nowhere for carbon capture and storage technologies--which every single energy expert agrees will increase coal production--we take a step backwards into the darkest chapter of history. (I write now as a cultural historian, and the grandson of a union coal miner who barely survived a cave-in, and suffered from black lung disease; and, as someone who has not only chronicled the two centuries of economic despair and displacement in the coalfields, but witnessed the destruction of his family's nearly 200-year-old historic homestead and waterways on the edge of a federally recognized Wilderness Area from stripmining in Illinois.)

Contradictory Supremes' Decision From June 2009
mcsmithblack
by mcsmithblack  1-24-2010   
 Read this article carefully and see where Justice Kennedy's decision again becomes the crucial vote. Also below, find the quote from Justice Roberts where he essentially says that giving the appearance of justice and impartiality is more important than the actual justice in itself: Joining Kennedy in the ruling were Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, David Souter and John Paul Stevens. In dissent signed by fellow conservatives Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, Chief Justice John Roberts argued that the ruling would damage public confidence in the judiciary: "The Court's new "rule" provides no guidance to judges and litigants about when recusal will be constitutionally required. This will inevitably lead to an increase in allegations that judges are biased, however groundless those charges may be. The end result will do far more to erode public confidence in judicial impartiality than an isolated failure to recuse in a particular case."

Senator Boldly Offers Measure to Overturn EPA Greenhouse-Gas Global Warming Alarmist Effort
MichaelEhline
by MichaelEhline  1-21-2010    1
 Warnings that the EPA regulations will cause economic hardship play to fears of joblessness as the U.S. unemployment rate remains stuck at 10%. Democrats have argued that steering the U.S. toward clean energy will create millions of new jobs. Republicans counter that rules to curb greenhouse-gas regulations will cost jobs in traditional industries instead.

Climate Change: Back to the future?
dl211
by dl211  1-14-2010    2
 There are many factors influencing climate. Variations in solar cycles, solar radiation deflection/absorption, the earth's core, ocean currents, complicated climate cycles, urban islands, rain forest depletion in some regions, reforestation in other regions and volcanic eruptions are just a few. The influence and interaction of all these factors and many more are much too complex to model precisely enough to draw conclusions about temperature rises and drops next month, much less next century. According to the best scientific evidence available, much of our planet has been buried under ice for most of the last million years. The duration of the ice ages was about 100,000 years, the most recent beginning approximately 114,000 years ago when global temperatures abruptly plummeted. Just as suddenly, about 10,000 years ago the planet warmed and glaciers receded. I checked, and there were no coal-burning fuel plants or SUVs in 8000 BC, but that will, of course, not deter the climate a

Wind produced 'practically no electricity' during Britain's cold snap
amgumen
by amgumen  1-12-2010    2
  a risk analyst for energy consultant Utilyx, said current plans to build 30 gigawatts of wind farms could have serious consequences for the security of the UK's energy supply in harsh weather conditions. "This week's surge in demand for energy in response to the cold weather raises serious concerns about the UK's increased reliance on wind power. National Grid was forced to issue two warnings about gas supply as demand surged to a record high, forcing it to ask 95 companies to turn off their pipelines. It lifted the warning on Friday, after problems with Norwegian pipeline gas supply were fixed, but demand may continue to rise next week with experts forecasting more snow.

U.K. warns Iceland of pariah status

 A situation like this could have quite a few consequences, many of which cannot be anticipated. Iceland may well become a valuable "canary in the coal mine" for the "de-leveraging" that is needed and that will likely take at least the first half of the new decade.
