sun and other news
Anyway, excuse the delay. Ive been outside.
In terms of news...
The Alaska Municipal League is hosting a big conference on climate change this week in Anchorage, which looks pretty cool. U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski is scheduled to speak today.
The Anchorage Daily News had an editorial and KTUU had a story on the polar bear listing, and APRN did something on efforts to get other ice-dependent animals listed. Andy Revkin at the NY Times wrote about polar nations meeting and agreeing to be sensible with land claims as the arctic ice melts.
In national news, Wired did a big piece on climate change and how we might have to rethink some common assumptions about dealing with it. NPR did a story about their story. And Revkin wrote about a new U.S. gov report on the impacts of climate change.. . . The meeting capped a frenetic year of Arctic activity as countries vied to demonstrate their polar hegemony with a mix of rhetoric, military maneuvers and, in the case of Russia, a submarine voyage to the seabed at the North Pole.
One of the two participating minisubmarines left a titanium national flag on the bottom, 14,000 feet beneath the shifting sea ice. . . .
