Living on thin ice
Last September, millions of you joined us for 24 Hours of Reality, when we connected the dots between the extreme weather events happening all over the world and the reality of the climate crisis.

The Keystone Myth
President Obama made the right call last week when he decided to reject the tar sands pipeline. The State Department, in its Congressional Report debunked the myth that this disastrous project would benefit the US: ?Regarding economic, energy security, and trade factors, the economic analysis in the final EIS indicates that, over the remainder of this decade, even if no new cross-border pipelines were constructed, there is likely to be little difference in the amount of crude oil refined at U....

Climate Deniers Control Congress
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka speaks the truth: ?[I]t is clear that as long as Congress is effectively controlled by climate change deniers, all of us ? investors, companies, workers and the broader public ? must take action ourselves,?

Interesting New Report on the Use of Solar at Military Bases
A Department of Defense consultant released a report this week which calculated that installing solar on just nine military bases in the Mojave and Colorado Deserts could generate 7,000 megawatts of power. "Depending on which yardstick you prefer, that amounts to the output of seven average nuclear plants or six large coal-fired plants. It would also amount to 25 percent of the renewable energy that California will require its utilities to produce by 2015, according to the 13 authors of the r...

The Real Jobs
An excellent editorial from The New York Times: ?The Republicans? claim that the pipeline will create tens of thousands of new jobs ? 20,000 according to House Speaker John Boehner and 100,000 according to Jon Huntsman ? are wildly inflated. A more accurate forecast from the federal government, one with which TransCanada, the pipeline company, agrees, says the project would create 6,000 to 6,500 temporary construction jobs at best, for two years.? ?The country obviously needs more jobs.
