Low Leaf Blower Season

Alas, we enter low leaf blower season. The time when there may be fewer blowers at work, but they work in concentration and the concerts are longer. Gone is the leisurely day of whirring grass clippings down the gleaming and pristine asphalt driveway. Gone is the easy, near melodious business of lawn and flower care. Now are the times of managing the canopy. The canopy that falls more each day, gradually bringing all of summer’s cooling respite to the ground.

First, let’s start with the current narrative: Donald Trump and his MAGA movement are succeeding in peeling off Latino voters at a pace that risks Kamala Harris’s presidential candidacy. According to a recent New York Times/Siena College poll of likely Latino voters across the country, Kamala Harris is “underperforming the last three Democratic candidates for the White House.” Yikes … maybe. Even “underperforming,” a significant majority ... by Carlos Sandoval

A Big Footprint

Two decades after the defeat of the plans of the now-defunct Long Island Lighting Company to build seven to 11 nuclear power plants in Suffolk County, safe-energy activists are concerned that we might again be targeted for nuclear power plants. This comes amid the biggest push in years for nuclear power in New York State, in the United States and internationally, as nuclear proponents try to latch on to climate change as a new reason for nuclear power, with the claim that it is “carbon-free” or “emissions-free.” This is untrue, especially when the “nuclear fuel chain” is taken into account. ... by Karl Grossman
