From Catherine Early we learn that "renewable energy is a dominant driver of development pressure" on indigenous people and their lands. Industrial civilization, oil-fueled but now green-fueled, must keep itself humming along, to hell with the natives. theecologist.org/2023/aug/08/de…

My article at Truthdig on technoindustrial society's pillaging the earth "for the climate." Lithium mining in Nevada, say the Indians there, is just another iteration of the white man's rapacious ways, but now dressed up in green. truthdig.com/articles/neoco…..

My call in the New York Times to stop lawless rancher Cliven Bundy's unceasing destruction of the Nevada desert. What's needed is immediate round-up of his cattle herd that runs amok in a fragile biome. Hell, shoot the cows. nytimes.com/2023/09/27/opi…

"McRae hated coal-burning power plants, but even more he hated gold mines. Love of gold was for McRae a form of civilizational degeneracy, because of the pollution associated with it, the catastrophic disruption of soil, the poisoning of water and air." harpers.org/archive/2023/1…

My piece, titled "Eat, Pray Pollute," on the needed death of tourism and the end of “the spectacled surveillance of place that effectively turns home, for local residents, into a turnstile Disneyland.” counterpunch.org/2024/09/30/eat…

Apropos of the United Healthcare CEO assassination, see my 2023 piece about Stephen P. McRae, "The Machine Breaker." "We discussed taking down the enemy—the Fortune 500 CEOs, say—and how the world would be a better place if they were all beheaded." Yep. harpers.org/archive/2023/1…
