Nonprofit and government executive leading progress for people, nature, and climate. Often out on trails biking, running, or hiking, or on rivers, creeks, and lakes paddling, usually with my kiddo and spouse. Views are my own.

I appreciate the Earthjustice CEO Dillen flagging this about the permitting reform "deal", BAAJA, but it's worse than it "could hamstring future administrations from executing more ambitious climate policies." It disabuses us of learning and adapting to new information, which...

What’s being called the “project certainty” provision would prevent agencies from reassessing permits — even in light of changing economics and science. That could hamstring future administrations from executing more ambitious climate policies, Dillen said.

A couple of friends flew by the house while I was out working on the deck today. #birds

Is this a new tactic that big tech's PR firms are starting to push? I don't think I've seen this phrase, "and other online services," appended to the AI focus of the data center explosion. It reeks of "...you try to stop us and we'll end your online services" penncapital-star.com/energy-envir...

"Williamsport developer Daniel Klingerman’s company submitted plans for a three data center campus on 100 acres in Muncy Township on April 28. That same day, the township board of supervisors passed a resolution declaring a nine-month moratorium on processing applications for data centers and similar high-intensity projects.

The pause is intended to allow township officials to have time to develop and enact zoning regulations to govern the design and construction of the massive computing hubs used to power artificial intelligence and other online services. "

Attention! #DogsOfBluesky

A scruffy black and tan dog and an old white and tan rat terrier are sitting up paying attention to something.

The Scruffadupolous is doing his normal evening lounging. He looks a little dejected for some reason… #DogsOfBluesky

A scruffy dog is laying on a rust-colored couch; bookshelves are in the background.

I consider myself lucky to usually get to work out on the deck in the wee hours each morning, enjoying views like this. #stars #nightsky

Night sky with a few high clouds, the moon near the top left, and the silhouettes of trees framing the image. Orion and Sirius are both visible.
