There’s a highly threatening and new reality for hurricanes. Unusually, the East Coast of the United States was not struck this year by any hurricanes. And thus, luckily, we were not hit by one of these extreme hurricanes that first meanders as a minor storm and then, in just a day or so after feeding from waters made ever-hotter by climate change, rise to the worst hurricane level, Category 5 on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale.

Emphasis Needed

This week’s Southampton Press comments were spot on, publishing two letters concerning our environment. One of the opinions addressed the sacrifices to our well-being that are made when overuse of water and chemicals to maintain a beautiful lawn overshadows the dangers involved. In addition, the tremendous overuse of plastics in packaging and wrapping is going to continue to take ever-increasing tolls on the environment and, more significantly, our health. My main concern is that the younger generation, from grammar school children forward, are not made aware, through more vigorous emphasis throughout their education, of the dangers to our environment.

Protect Horseshoe Crabs

Group for the East End lends its voice to the inhabitants of our natural environment that cannot speak for themselves. Take the American horseshoe crab. These arthropods have survived five mass extinctions on planet Earth in their 450-million-year existence. That’s an extraordinary feat. They are known as a keystone species, meaning other animals, such as migratory birds, depend on them for their own survival. Horseshoe crabs also have contributed to lifesaving medical advancements and improved human health. Now, it is our turn to help them. Comprehensive studies released this past summer reaffirm a drastic population decline over the last 25 ... by Staff Writer

Not Normal

It has been one year since the election of Donald Trump to a second term of the presidency. Within my limit of 450 words, I have listed below an abbreviated review of what is not normal for an American president, as the whirlwind of choices Trump has made have blurred the boundaries of normalcy. • It is not normal for a president to send military or National Guard to American cities when there is no crisis, just because he feels like it. • It is not normal for a president to condone terrorizing people and arresting them because they don’t ... by Staff Writer
