And the "traffic" isn't 6/27/2020 6:38 AM automobiles.The skies are clear and deep blue. The weather is seasonal and predictable.There are no HOT summers; NO winters that ruin vegetation . This is the high desert I came to 40 years ago. We want it back. 2 public declaration of importance. Attention focusing policies and events 6/23/2020 7:03 AM 3 We set the example of community responsibility if our resources. We are known for as a city 6/20/2020 10:29 PM where green construction is required. We incentivize best environmental practices and we have made the city a leader in walkability. 4 It was just like 2020. 6/20/2020 7:15 AM 5 Visitors will continue to experience the beauty of Sedona 6/19/2020 10:33 PM 6 hotel development is curbed and the buildings are green. uptown isn’t so commercial/ tourist 6/19/2020 9:48 PM junky so locals might want to go there. Tourists are discouraged from trashing the land. 7 In 2050, Sedona will be a place where people, both locals and visitors, enjoy and protect the 6/19/2020 11:45 AM environment. Where everyone is walking and biking, perhaps solar generated transportation. Sedona will be a leader in sustainable tourism. 8 ....there is a public transit system implemented for visitors and locals to use. A limit to the 6/19/2020 11:13 AM number of visitors allowed into Oak Creek Canyon. Solar panels become the norm for energy consumption and more trees are planted for shade and air purification. Composting of food waste is also a service implemented city wide. Bike lanes and safe routes are installed to get from Uptown to West Sedona and VOC. 9 No vehicles in the forest (especially NO AVTs which are very loud and smelly and ruin the 6/19/2020 11:06 AM experience too )except for ones to carry handicapped people so they can visit forest too 10 all the power lines are gone, we have 100% renewable energy sources. Most of the cars and 6/19/2020 10:23 AM buses and trams are electric, all would be better but since we're still producing gas guzzlers, it's going to take longer than 30 years to get them all off the road. Safe bike trails everywhere, not in a lane accessible to cars. 11 In 2050, Sedona will be a place of clean air and water where gas emissions have met the 6/18/2020 4:39 PM temperature rise goal; electric vehicles thrive, people bike and use public transit to get around town, VOC, and Oak Creek Canyon; solar, wind and geothermal energy predominates, there are huge community gardens, and our tourists all participate as eco volunteers in helping us maintain a healthy lifestyle and culture. 12 We are better from a climate standpoint than we are today 6/18/2020 1:55 PM 13 people look for leadership in dealing with the effects of AGW, such as wildfire, draught, etc. 6/18/2020 11:49 AM while at the same time provides a place to honor / recharge in a supreme natural environment. 14 People can live in and visit a place where there is no 5G, where the air is clear, and there is 6/18/2020 10:53 AM peace and quiet. 15 the natural beauty will be preserved and the recreation opportunities will thrive without 6/18/2020 8:43 AM damaging that beauty further. 16 Our community is thriving under beautiful, clean Sedona blue skies, where Oak Creek runs free 6/17/2020 10:06 PM with clear water, and people enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle. 17 There is zero waste and self sustainable 6/17/2020 9:10 PM 18 ...the city achieved 100% clean energy, both production and consumption, twenty years earlier, 6/17/2020 8:19 PM in 2030. 19 Some streets won’t allow car traffic.

Tourism has been 6/17/2020 8:05 PM tamed. 20 Residents and tourists don’t need personal cars as there will be a connected system of 6/17/2020 5:00 PM bicycling and walking as well as shuttles. Oak creek and verde river will still have water to support wildlife and people. 21 In 2050, Sedona will be a place with an incredible fiber optic network for high speed internet, a 6/17/2020 4:52 PM 4 / 85 Sedona Community Survey place with a plethora of biking and walking paths and a beautiful community without a parking garage. 22 adherence to federal and state guidelines for responsible use of resources and climate 6/17/2020 1:13 PM balancing are not only in place but are utilized for economic and global harmony. 23 Less traffic with more emphasis on quality of life for locals, not just local business owners. 6/17/2020 1:03 PM Expended public transportation, especially to popular destinations. Promotion of walking and biking. A sidewalk on Coffee pot drive! Urban trail from Sedona to village of Oak creek. Regulate and limit number of ATV rentals. ATV's create major noise pollution, each one contributes more to climate change than a standard car. Further they encourage unsustainable recreation. Stop marketing Sedona, it already sells its self, increasing traffic on roads to and in Sedona contributes to climate change. Banning single use plastic items, such as straws, plastic bags and utensils. A fee charged (as Santa Cruz, CA does) for any bags provided. 24 pedestrians, bikers, and other non-motorized vehicles can maneuver within Sedona and 6/17/2020 12:36 PM between cities in the Verde Valley. In addition, community solar grids are established throughout the city and public transportation is common. Finally, every restaurant provides predominantly vegan menu choices. 25 It will have spent a lot of money for nothing trying to address climate change that cannot be 6/17/2020 8:03 AM controlled and is a force of nature. With that being said, that does not mean that we shouldn’t try to use less paper, turn the lights out when you leave the room, etc.. I think it is foolish to spend taxpayer money for technologies, that although appear eco-friendly, have a larger negative impact on the environment. Just be good stewards of what we have and practice everyday good common sense. 26 There will be no nature and no trails as the chamber of commerce only wanted hotels, tourists 6/17/2020 7:06 AM and money. Sad, but the Sedona we loved does not exist anymore. Too much trash, hotels, and traffic. 27 There are wider roads, taller hotels, and a free bus system for tourists 6/17/2020 5:38 AM 28 ...corporations have stopped polluting the earth, where weather warfare has abated (instead of 6/17/2020 12:18 AM continuing under the not-reported media radar [thank you citizen journalists], where the aerosol spraying overhead is eliminated completely which is why Sedona -and elsewhere around the globe maintains a clear blue sky. 29 there are no more heavily air polluting, noisy, congestion creating ATV's terrorizing our streets 6/16/2020 11:17 PM 30 Its people live in harmony with nature. 6/16/2020 10:36 PM 31 there are both zero emission vehicles and alternative transportation modes, clean and 6/16/2020 3:21 PM renewable energy sources and solid waste/sustainable consumption/zero waste systems. 32 Sedona will be an example for other communities by demonstrating how a community can 6/16/2020 3:12 PM come together to prioritize the planet. 33 The detrimental effects of 5G network was recognized and an effective action plan embraced 6/16/2020 2:54 PM by elected city leaders and 5G was banned. Sedona lead the way in AZ. 34 I would like to see immediate action taken. From more bike lanes traversing the town to an 6/16/2020 2:47 PM increase in charging stations for electric cars.

  • Planet of the Capitalists
    Planet of the Capitalists Planet of the Humans, the new documentary from Michael Moore and Jeff Gibbs, seeks to expose the false promises of renewable energy. It also warns against the bad leadership on climate issues from liberal environmental groups like the Sierra Club and Bill McKibben at 350.org. As many readers will know, the film faces afirestorm of condemnation from the broad left,a favorable review on Breitbart for exposing the “hypocrisy” of the environmental left, and a handful of favorable reviews from radicals. It also has over 7.5 million views and climbing on YouTube as of this writing. Critics correctly say that Planet of the Humans makes outdated and inaccurate assertions about renewable energy, which underplay its capacity to replace fossil fuels. It uses gotcha-style journalism toward critics of the fossil-fuel industry such as McKibben, which is puzzling given Moore’s claim of wanting to engage in serious debate about the way forward in confronting the climate emergency. The film projects a drama of collusion of liberal climate groups and Wall Street. There is truth around collaboration of environmental groups and big business, but it’s also not breaking news. At the same time, the documentary’s popularity likely reflects another conclusion of the film: temperatures continue to rise and decades of climate organizing hasn’t lowered emissions. It is worth stepping back, and seeing what can be salvaged. Here is what Moore says about the film and controversy: “Wall Street requires that every business grow from year-to- year. If a business does really good this year, it’s not good enough that they do the same thing next year.

  • Museletter 327 / May 2020
    MuseLetter 327 / May 2020 richardheinberg.com MuseLetter #327 / May 2020 by Richard Heinberg Dear Readers, This month I offer two short pieces: my review of Planet of the Humans, a new film produced by Michael Moore; and "Nobody Takes Renewable Energy Transition Seriously," in which I offer suggestions for what we should do if we really want to get society off of fossil fuels and avert catastrophic climate change. Stay safe and healthy, Richard Review: Planet of the Humans A few days ago, Emily Atkin posted a reaction to Michael Moore’s latest film, Planet of the Humans (directed and narrated by Jeff Gibbs), in which she began by admitting that she hadn’t seen the film yet. When writers take that approach, you know there’s already blood in the water. (She has since watched the film and written an actual review. Full disclosure: I’m in the film, included as one of the “good guys.” But I don’t intend to let that fact distort my comments in this review.) The film is controversial because it makes two big claims: first, that renewable energy is a sham; second, that big environmental organizations— by promoting solar and wind power—have sold their souls to billionaire investors. I feel fairly confident commenting on the first of these claims, regarding renewable energy, having spent a year working with David Fridley of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to assess the prospects for a complete transition to solar and wind power. We found that the transition to renewables is going far too slowly to make much of a difference during the crucial next couple of decades, and would be gobsmackingly expensive if we were to try replacing all fossil fuel use with solar and wind.

  • Ecological Economics: Solutions for the Future - 2
    Academic rigour This book arose from the ANZSEE (Australian New Zealand Society for Ecological Economics) conference ‘Ecological Economics: Solutions Now and in the Future’ held at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia in November 2019 (https://anzsee.org.au/2019-anzsee-conference/). In the planning for this conference we agreed that the book arising from this would be self-published so that the pdf could be given away free, and the paperback would be as cheap as possible so that students and the general public could purchase it easily. I took on the role of Editor pro bono to ensure we ended up with a book. However throughout this process we have remained committed to academic rigour. All chapters were reviewed twice by the Editor (sometimes more). Some chapters were also reviewed by other academics when the Editor thought this was needed. The Introduction was developed by the Editor and ecological economist A/Prof Philip Lawn, who originally had hoped to be co- Editor, but had to cancel due to personal reasons. Several chapters were reviewed by Dr Boyd Blackwell, President of ANZSEE. Hence, although this book was not published by a major publisher, it upholds academic rigour. The Editor, Dr Haydn Washington PANGEA Research Centre, BEES, UNSW Lead Editor of ‘A Future Beyond Growth’ (Washington and Twomey 2016); Editor ‘Positive Steps to a Steady State Economy’ (Washington 2017) Co-Director of CASSE NSW Co-Facilitator of the Ecological Economics Hub of the New Economy Network of Australia Ecological Economics: Solutions for the Future - 2 Copyright © Haydn Washington, 2020.

  • Genetic Ancestry Testing Among White Nationalists Aaron
    When Genetics Challenges a Racist’s Identity: Genetic Ancestry Testing among White Nationalists Aaron Panofsky and Joan Donovan, UCLA Abstract This paper considers the emergence of new forms of race-making using a qualitative analysis of online discussions of individuals’ genetic ancestry test (GAT) results on the white nationalist website Stormfront. Seeking genetic confirmation of personal identities, white nationalists often confront information they consider evidence of non-white or non- European ancestry. Despite their essentialist views of race, much less than using the information to police individuals’ membership, posters expend considerable energy to repair identities by rejecting or reinterpreting GAT results. Simultaneously, however, Stormfront posters use the particular relationships made visible by GATs to re-imagine the collective boundaries and constitution of white nationalism. Bricoleurs with genetic knowledge, white nationalists use a “racial realist” interpretive framework that departs from canons of genetic science but cannot be dismissed simply as ignorant. Introduction Genetic ancestry tests (GATs) are marketed as a tool for better self-knowledge. Purporting to reveal aspects of identity and relatedness often unavailable in traditional genealogical records, materials promoting GATs advertise the capacity to reveal one’s genetic ties to ethnic groups, ancient populations and historical migrations, and even famous historical figures. But this opportunity to “know thyself” can come with significant risks. Craig Cobb had gained public notoriety and cult status among white supremacists for his efforts to buy up property in Leith, ND, take over the local government, and establish a white supremacist enclave. In 2013, Cobb was invited on The Trisha Show, a daytime talk show, to debate these efforts.

  • Right and Left, Partisanship Predicts (Asymmetric) Vulnerability to Misinformation

While our results confirm prior findings that online misinformation sharing is strongly correlated with right-leaning partisanship, we also uncover a similar, though weaker, trend among left-leaning users. Because of the correlation between a user’s partisanship and their position within a partisan echo chamber, these types of influence are confounded. To disentangle their effects, we performed a regression analysis and found that vulnerability to misinformation is most strongly influenced by partisanship for both left- and right-leaning users.

  • Transitioning to “Geocratia” the Jus Semper Global Alliance
    The Jus Semper Global Alliance Living Wages North and South Sustainable Human Development May 2020 BRIEFS ON TRUE DEMOCRACY AND CAPITALISM Transitioning to “Geocratia” the People and Planet and Not the Market Paradigm — First Steps Álvaro J. de Regil ollowing up on my commentary to the March 2020 Great Transition Initiative (GTI) forum: F “Planetise the Movement”,1 I assess the diverse ideas discussed in the forum and concurrently elaborate with far more detail in this essay how I envision the first steps to materialise the change of paradigm from the current unsustainable market- centred ethos to a global movement that rescues our planet and provides sustainable life systems for our future generations and all living things. The implicit premiss in the forum is that there is already a movement yearning to transition from the current paradigm to a new truly sustainable one; in fact it is presumed that we are already in a trajectory that will shape a new planetary society, albeit because of cultural, social, and political fissures,2 the outcome is still uncertain. In 2002, the GTI published a seminal paper: “Great Transition — The Promise and Lure of the Times Ahead”. It assesses the underlying causes of the complete unsustainability of world development and advances a long-term alternative scenario that examines the requirements to build a new sustainable paradigm by identifying strategies, agents for change and values for a new global agenda.3 In December 2017, the GTI revisited the issue, focusing specifically on “How Do We Get There?”4 What becomes evident is that there is indeed a growing number of people that have arrived at the conclusion that we cannot remain in the current unsustainable market-driven paradigm if we want to bequeath a planet where future generations of all species can enjoy a dignified quality of life.

  • Adjustments, Strokes and Errors in Medicine by Dr
    Adjustments, strokes and errors in medicine by Dr. C. Kent Page 1 of 5 Read and respected by more doctors of chiropractic than any other professional publication in the world. A publication of the World Chiropractic Alliance Research on Purpose by Dr. Christopher Kent Adjustments, strokes and errors in medicine In both Canada and the United Stares, reports have appeared in the popular media suggesting that chiropractic "manipulation" of the cervical spine is associated with strokes. Some writers have suggested that such procedures be banned. These allegations require a swift and vigorous response. In his book, "Galileo's Revenge," attorney Peter Huber describes "junk science" as "A hodgepodge of biased data, spurious inference, and logical legerdemain...It is a catalog of every conceivable kind of error: data dredging, wishful thinking, truculent dogmatism, and, now and again, outright fraud." (1) An excellent example of "junk science" is the popular notion that chiropractic adjustments cause strokes. Although individual case reports of adverse events following "manipulation" have been reported in the medical literature for decades, recent exposés in the popular media seem to have led some individuals to accept this premise at face value. Careful examination will reveal that these individuals have fallen prey to a classic case of "junk science." A common error in logic is equating correlation with cause and effect. The fact that a temporal relationship exists between two events does not mean that one caused the other. As Keating (2) explained, "To mistake temporal contiguity of two phenomena for causation is a classic fallacy of reasoning known as 'post hoc, ergo propter hoc,' from the Latin meaning 'after this, therefore caused by this.'" Consider the application of this fallacy in the case of chiropractic adjustments and strokes.
