As usual, another climate change activist. I would like someone to tell me, accurately, when the climate change started that we humans are supposed to have created.
Climate change actually began when this rock was formed. And according to other scientists reports, it has gone from a molten rock through ice ages and back to what we would call a more temperate climate. Which ones do we listen to ? They all can’t be correct with opposing opinions. As for this very old rock, we are here for such a short time , compared to this rock, some of these statements are highly speculative.

Last i checked - if ALL homeo sapien-sapiens were to disappear tomorrow the trajectory of this rocks climate cycle(s) would continue as if we were never here. And, while we can now observe, drill & measure to find what some “experts” deem as the human contribution to the current warming cycle - it is much larger forces behind the scenes setting the thermostat. Human input to climate didn’t cause the Pleistocene to end and Holocene to begin just sayin…

I think we have more to worry about with an asteroid or huge meteor striking us as well as being concerned with all the space trash circling the Earth. Less sunlight and more danger trying to travel into space.
Worry about what you can change, not what you can’t.

CO thermals.
I might be going out on a limb, but in the long run, if it was red flag month in Region 5s normally dry zones, I’d be expecting some S2Ts. Right? Tell me phoscheck works there? RJs would be picturesque, too. [Gabbart 2022: Video of aircraft working the Ross Fire in Idaho]
Albuquerque & Bernalillo County Fire/Rescue seemed to be having a wildland fire this morning. A fire attack officer requested traffic control recently. 2 Copters reported in quarters. MAFFs aircraft are in some sort of ready status for the whole area. Good assets to help get in front of a chugging freight train.

The project is the first of its kind in the nation, and local officials hope its success will serve as a blueprint for communities across the country.
Using authority granted by the 2018 Farm Bill, the White River National Forest was able to lease public land to local governments to develop housing. The provision only applies to Forest Service sites that are already being used for administrative purposes, most of which currently have some form of housing or workplace infrastructure.
The current plans call for up to 177 rental units to be constructed at the site and replace aging facilities — with 10 of those units reserved for full-time Forest Service staff and up to 30 beds for seasonal employees.
