Just Mine Now

Amazing. Hope we don't destroy this. - Plants teach their offspring how to adapt to climate change, scientists find I'd much rather see a substitute for lithium because I know where they plan to mine this on indigenous lands. People don't stop to think who is affected and how. I remember Myron Dewey speaking out against it. I think of other mining that has also been done on indigenous lands and lands sacred to indigenous peoples. Think coal, uranium, and copper. Think about the effects. - Nevada enters the race for lithium with new mines. But is there a dark side to our electric future? Good to see the Honor Flights are still in progress so that Vets can get to D.C. to see this in person without having to incur the cost. - Arizonans among those celebrating national memorial to Native veterans | Navajo-Hopi Observer | Navajo & Hopi Nations, AZ I thought about Pell Grants reading this so I looked into them a bit, learning that only 34% of undergrads receive these.  I ...

Election deniers are poor losers, can't accept that the bulk of people in their state don't support them. It's sad that some were elected across this country. It's about time Lake, Masters and Finchem accept their losses. All 3 are losers. It's about time the biggest election denier accept his loss, that, btw he has acknowledged but doesn't want his financial supporters to know that. You know who I'm talking about, his MAGA crowd. - In Arizona, Election Deniers Suddenly Decry Voter Suppression When is it going to stop? Consequences! C'mon now! - Brett Favre helped an experimental drug maker get $2M in welfare money. Experts doubt the drug can work. via @nbcnews BS what Russia claims about "no substantive progress...made toward creating a security zone around Zaporizhzhia."  Why the hell would there be? Damn, Putin, if you hadn't illegally invaded Ukraine, & taken over this power plant for your purposes, there wouldn't be a proble...

I wonder though since fire season has proven to be a 365 day deal the last few years. Article seems to think otherwise , that the worry is over this year. - 'We got really lucky this year' If this is really the case, then I'm glad I'm no where near religious. This is asinine. They should be concerned. Their uh prayers will stop nothing if we don't mend out ways. - Poll says religious Americans worry less over the planet This destruction is all on Russia and its illegal invasion of Ukraine. Funds of the oligarchs in Russia, including Putin damn well better pay for the destruction they have caused. - Blasts again rock Ukrainian nuclear plant Let's look seriously at what these antiabortion laws such as those in Texas have caused. Time for us to go after those states that are causing these travesties. Am I pissed? You're damn straight I am. Let's hold these mofos accountable! - Fears confirmed in a post-Roe landscape Common sense - It's a mistake to ...

Decent promise for antiaircraft guns & air-defense technology.  The UK is another Western country that staunchly stands with Ukraine. And, stating the obvious for all those who have issues with the US supporting Ukraine, we aren't the only ones. Not doing so would put us on the wrong side of history with the GOP.   Don't forget that Russia continues to attack civilians. - British leader makes surprise visit to Kyiv It's about time. Like the fact there can be no backsliding though I'm sure the GOP will try to make us do that in the new Congress. - In historic pact, poor countries to be paid for climate damage Mejia's asking the right questions IMHO. - He rode the wave of L.A.'s new left This does spell it out, including where the #COP27 fell short, & what Australia needs to do before COP 31. - Australian leadership will be crucial to future global climate action | Climate Council If you missed this tonight, watch to see what it's like with Russia...

Sad that this will probably be the case. Just a few of us wanting something done is no where near enough. Interesting metaphors included. -  The West will not act on climate change until it feels its pain via @AJEnglish Worth the read. Extremes of climate change in Africa described here. - How to Pay for Climate Justice When Polluters Have All the Money via @NewYorker Considering how Russia has shown itself to be the aggressor, good idea for this to happen. This border wall is needed. There is good reason. This is what thinking ahead looks like. Russia can't be trusted. - Finland to start building 200km long border fence with Russia next year Article also addresses Finland's protection of its border.
