** "Malthusian ideology and misplaced concreteness are only made possible because elites, from heads of state to government ministers, spend many days every year jet-setting around the world to speak at conferences in places like Davos and Aspen, and spend little to no time visiting with farmers like Rabbinge and Van Maanen. If they did, they would not only gain greater empathy, they would also see that there are good solutions right in front of them."

How's that streamlining coming along, Senator Manchin?

(8/17/22) reports: "A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday vacated a lower court's decision to block the Biden administration's pause on new oil and gas leasing on federal land and waters - a key piece of the president's climate change strategy - and sent the case back to that court for further proceedings. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the Louisiana district court decision to block the Interior Department's leasing pause after Louisiana and a dozen states sued the administration established arguing that they would suffer injury from the policy. The court said the district court's order and accompanying memorandum 'lack specificity' and said its injunction focused on an Interior Department action which was not yet finalized. President Joe Biden had paused the government's new leases in January 2021 as part of a sweeping plan to rein in fossil-fuel extraction on federal land and combat the effects of climate change. The Interior Department last year said it would proceed with new
leases during the appeals process
'consistent with the district court’s injunction during the appeal.'"

Why does Jon Biden hate eagles?

** Daily Caller ([link removed])
(8/18/22) reports: "The Biden administration’s push to increase the number of wind turbines in the American West is killing significant portions of the golden eagle, potentially endangering the existence of one of the two eagle species that are native to North America, according to the Associated Press. President Joe Biden is ramping up wind energy developments which scientists say could lead to 20,000 golden eagle deaths over a ten-year period, equal to roughly 50% of the species’ population, which is about 40,000, according to the AP, citing a United States Geological Survey (USGS) study. The number of wind turbines nationally more than doubled in the last ten years to roughly 70,000, with development encroaching on prime golden eagle habitat in states including Wyoming, Montana, California, Washington and Oregon, reported the AP...'As we increase wind development across the U.S., that risk is increasing,' Bryan Bedrosian, conservation director at the Teton Raptor Center in Wilson,
Wyoming, told the AP. 'Wind mortality wasn’t a thing for golden eagles 10 years ago.' The expansion of wind power is a key part of President Joe Biden’s climate agenda that seeks to replace fossil fuels with green energy sources like wind turbines in order to achieve net-zero carbon emissions economy-wide by 2050. The Democrats’ $369 climate bill, which Biden passed into law on Tuesday, will entice developers to invest in wind projects through tax breaks and subsidies."
