We desperately need carbon-free energy. But our decarbonization goals are on a collision course with biodiversity conservation goals in the desert southwest, putting both in jeopardy.
Thank you for your insights and clear articulation of what an actual environmental policy might look like.
Having read a lot of Reddit (sadly, need to kick that particular habit) the number of posts I see shift blaming environmentalists for you know caring about the environment while just hand waving away the biodiversity crisis is beyond infuriating.
Wonderful essay. The desert needs people like you to act and advocate on its behalf. The York Fire down in the Mojave is heartbreaking, but it at least is naturally caused I think. But human projects are equally damaging and preventable.
