People touting #Democracy should study how #Trump uses rallies to show he's listening. He floats, "They say..." or "people tell me..." watching and working crowd reaction. It's all focus group testing. Americans want less instruction and more participation. Thom Hartmann
My update on the North Atlantic right #Whale for Sierra Club is now live. Just a snapshot, but after a pretty good birth year, but also many deaths, the animal may be adapting itself into a better place for survival. sierraclub.org/sierra/north-a…
Go International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) ! Also go MethaneSAT - I'd love to see a citizen task force watching that data. Spot the methane leak.
Is there any hope for the North Atlantic right #Whale ? Sierra Club Even after the tragic whale deaths this year, the animal may be adapting itself into a better place for survival. Just a snapshot in a crazy rollercoaster ride against time: sierraclub.org/sierra/north-a…

North Atlantic Right Whale: Having spent last week at the #NARW conference, I see The New York Times was there as well. Glad they mentioned Maine lobstermen and NOAA gag. Problems less covered: "volunteer" low boat speeds, recreational boats/sport fishers nytimes.com/interactive/20…
My story on Maine #lobster issue sets some context around the politics of lobster fishing and gag of NOAA Fisheries ambrook.com/research/susta… mentioned in today's The New York Times piece I Tweeted on the plight of right whales.
That The New York Times got the North Atlantic right #whale story out there is why I subscribe to them. Also fairly comprehensive, some context, no dancing bears – is it too much to ask?
Since The New York Times is focusing on North Atlantic Right Whale this week, I'll say my piece Sierra Club goes into more detail about some of the snags and offers ways to take action. #whale - #NARW sierraclub.org/sierra/north-a…
