Painting 1 of 3 rotor blades black on 4 Norwegian turbines cut bird collisions by nearly 72 percent, and the white tailed eagles under them stopped hitting the rotors altogether

Smøla is a low treeless island off the northwest coast of Norway, and 68 wind turbines stand on it.

“I run a conventional oil company …I analyzed, as a private citizen, the value and worthiness of the new pipeline. My conclusion? That the pipeline project is a conditional bet — and possibly, a defensible one — being sold as a commercial certainty,”

This is a genuinely useful (and deeply researched) piece on the economics of a west-coast pipeline and the production needed to fill it. I don't agree with everything it says but I think everyone discussing or thinking about the issue should read it. macdonaldlaurier.ca/a-veiled-bet...

What a great platform to publicly deny promising Trump a CNN overhaul or $20 million in free advertising in exchange for merger approvals. Or to speak out against his bullying of journalists you employ or want to employ. Weird that you didn’t do any of that.

Donald Trump is psychotic. This is not an insult. He has literally lost his connection to the objective world. He has collapsed into himself, and he has taken his regime, and his nation, with him. “Psychosis is a state of absolute narcissism” —Erich Fromm www.mind-war.com/p/the-presid...
