Exploring humanness during radioactive times: a review of "SOS: The San Onofre Syndrome: Nuclear Power's Legacy" In the mid-1940s, a small group of scientists learned to split uranium atoms. They applied their newfound knowledge to making and deploying nuclear bombs. When World War II ended, yet other scientists wanted to split uranium atoms to generate electrical power for military operations and public utilities: they wanted to make nuclear reactors to produce plutonium, the basic material necessary for thermonuclear bombs.

While facing existential threats, what do precautionary actions look like? Here's a pristine example of acting without caution: A few years ago, while my neighbor and I talked near my strawberry patch, a swarm of ants suddenly appeared. "I have a can of poison on my porch!" my friend cried. "Okay," I said, oblivious to potential consequences, focused on the quick solution. In a blink, the ant swarm died. The next time I looked, the strawberry patch was gone, too.

Why I don't consider climate change our root problem and I'd welcome economies that recognize limits to growth I see climate change at work here; and I do not consider it our root problem. At the root, we've got overshoot: unlimited manufacturing and consumption of goods on a planet with finite raw materials. Like wildlife habitat loss, increased population and income disparities, climate change is a consequence of overshoot.

Telecom corporations are now deploying "small cells" on utility poles Around North America, telecom corporations are now deploying "small cells"--small cellular antennas--on utility poles. Sometimes called distributed-antenna systems (DAS), these antennas provide citywide Wi-Fi. I've heard of one proposal to install 700 antennas around one town with one permit. I've heard of antennas going up with no permit.

How corporations can "take" endangered species"legally: a tutorial from environmental lawyer Will Falk In December 2023, when a federal judge ordered the Enel Corporation to remove 84 wind turbines from Osage Nation land, I asked environmental lawyer Will Falk about the case's relevance to Lithium Nevada Corporation's (LNC's) mine at Thacker Pass, Nevada. In 2020, Falk and Max Wilbert began trying to stop LNC from constructing a lithium mine at Thacker Pass.

Call Me a NIMBY When climate change activist Bill McKibben spoke last month in Santa Fe about climate change and the green building boom, he said that instead of a not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY) mentality, people should welcome solar panels and wind turbines. "Don't be the person who hires a lawyer," McKibben said, "and gets in the way of the future."
