How Sin City finally learned to sustain itself
Las Vegas, despite its reputation for extravagance, has become a model for water conservation and smart planning in response to the ongoing drought in the Colorado River Basin. The Southern Nevada Water Authority has implemented aggressive measures to reduce water use, including incentivizing the removal of turf grass and recycling nearly all indoor water. These efforts have led to a significant decrease in water consumption, even as the population has grown. The city's proactive approach serves as a potential model for other regions facing similar challenges.

Mass firings hamstring federal land agencies and wildfire response
Federal agencies responsible for managing public lands and responding to wildfires are in disarray following mass firings by the Trump administration, which dismissed thousands of federal workers. The cuts, affecting the United States Forest Service and other agencies, are expected to hinder efforts to combat wildfires and manage public lands, exacerbating the challenges posed by the climate crisis. The firings have sparked fears of privatization and have been criticized by unions and legislators, who argue that the reductions will have a detrimental impact on agency missions and public safety. The situation has created a culture of fear and uncertainty within the agencies, with concerns about the future of public land management and emergency response capabilities.

ConocoPhillips ‘Supercharged’ Its Lobbying in 2022 Ahead of Biden’s Approval of Controversial Willow Project
ConocoPhillips significantly increased its federal lobbying efforts in 2022 to secure approval for the Willow oil project in Alaska, which the Biden administration authorized. The project, expected to generate substantial economic benefits for Alaska, has faced opposition from climate activists and some Democratic members of Congress due to its environmental impact. The Bureau of Land Management approved a scaled-back version of the project, which will still produce significant oil output and greenhouse gas emissions. The decision has sparked legal challenges from environmental groups, while labor unions and Alaskan officials support the project for its economic potential.

Artifacts found on Don Miller's property in Indiana.
The article discusses the discovery and seizure of one of the world's largest personal collections of cultural artifacts by the FBI from the property of Don Miller in Waldron, Indiana. Miller, a 90-year-old man, had amassed over 42,000 items, including Native American artifacts and human remains, some of which were acquired illegally.

The FBI worked with Native American tribes to repatriate the items and remains. The article also touches on the history of grave robbing and the market for Native American artifacts, as well as the legal efforts to protect and repatriate Native American cultural heritage, including the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA).

Get Lost in Mega-Tunnels Dug by South American Megafauna
Geologists in Brazil have discovered extensive paleoburrows, tunnels believed to be dug by extinct megafauna such as giant ground sloths and armadillos. These burrows, some stretching up to 3,000 feet, are found predominantly in southern Brazil. The findings challenge existing geological knowledge and raise questions about the behavior and capabilities of these ancient animals. Despite their size, the purpose of these burrows remains unclear, and dating them accurately is still a challenge. The research highlights the need for further study to understand the patterns and origins of these impressive structures.

Peaks Fire northeast of Apache Junction grows to 40 acres, several trails closed
A lightning-caused fire in the Four Peaks wilderness area has expanded to 40 acres since Monday night. Due to the remote location, steep terrain, and excessive heat, fire managers opted not to send crews into the area, instead monitoring the fire from the air and allowing it to move into accessible areas for fire line construction. Several trails and a section of road in the Tonto National Forest have been closed as a precaution, though there are no immediate threats to property.

Could building on public land address the housing crisis?
The article discusses the potential of building on public lands in the Western United States to address the region's severe housing crisis. It explores two types of public land developments: those on state- and municipal-owned land, often within urban areas, and those on federally owned land, typically on the outskirts of communities. The article highlights California's approach, where affordable-housing developers get priority on surplus public land, and Nevada's BLM land sales around Las Vegas. Experts emphasize the importance of explicitly addressing affordability in housing projects, citing a Colorado project leasing land from the U.S. Forest Service for middle-income housing as a positive example. However, concerns are raised about developments that do not guarantee affordability, such as Senator Mike Lee's HOUSES Act. The article also considers the impact of public land development on local economies, infrastructure, and natural hazards.
