So, I read this article many years ago
There IS something to be said about how the environmental movement operates, *especially* since the Movement, capital M, as we know it, here in the US, has some exceedingly racist roots. The reason we have National Parks, unfortunately, is because indigenous tribes were forced off that land. And I don't say that to make you feel bad for going to a national park or say that they shouldn't exist, it's just what happened.
There are a lot of environmental orgs today that are still stepping in milquetoast liberal whiteness - think Greenpeace, Sierra Club. These groups HAVE done good work, but they're sometimes frustrating to work with.
And let's not forget The Population Bomb era, which had *devastating* consequences for people who were notably non-white. The ecofash narrative is obviously a very white one.
So, are these articles propaganda? Sometimes. Is the whiteness in environmental spaces exhausting enough to make some people leave? Yeah. Is that a problem for them to solve? No. We all have to take care of ourselves - but the environmental movement is still a necessary one.

Good idea: community owned solar farms
https://www.ecowatch.com/scotland-largest-community-solar-farm.html
A major new community solar project is coming to the Isle of Arran in Scotland. The 6 megawatt Glenkiln solar farm will be Scotland’s largest entirely community-owned solar farm.
The £5 million ($6.48 million) project proposal recently gained planning approval and will move forward in securing construction financing, Energy Global reported. According to Arran Community Renewables (ACR), the local Community Benefit Society behind the project, Glenkiln solar farm will generate enough energy to power around 1,250 households per year by the time it is in operation in 2027.

I made an illegal bike lane with my friends that connects a big bike trail to our neighborhood. Safety over following the fucking rules.

The Trump administration is leveraging the fake Dire Wolves to justify for removing Endangered Species Act protections.
“If we’re going to be in anguish about losing a species, now we have an opportunity to bring them back,” he told Interior Department employees during a live-streamed town hall Wednesday. “Pick your favorite species and call up Colossal.”
