Arkansas Conservation deserves Arkansas Conversation

Anyone in the not-for-profit game knows that it's hell right now. That said, I'm going to try and make some money here: http://www.arkansasconversation.com. Keep your eye on the space. (I'm playing with the code on the site so it will change a bit- any css experts please contact me!)

The Arkansas Conservation Alliance will continue. We expect to be out in full force when the legislature reconvenes. Please buy music at the link to the right >>>>>>>>>, or click on the donate button and make a contribution so that we might have a budget next go 'round!

The MSM Take on Oil and Gas

The DemoGaz weighs in on Oil and Gas here. Slightly different story in Central Arkansas print version not lost on me. Isn't news here news there? Am I being persnickety for noticing? Thank God for internet reporting.

Further:

Arkansas leaders comfort themselves with theoretical possibility because they don't truly understand physical limitation. They don't mind committing toxic water to a class 2 injection well thousands of feet below ground because they know that today the means to retrieve and treat this water does in fact exist. Regardless of cost and/or political will, it is theoretically possible to retrieve and treat this water today.

Tomorrow, with global financial assistance,  we will perchance be able to retrieve and treat our water. But wouldn't it be in the best interest of all Arkansans to negotiate our right to a healthy existence immediately?  In other words, we should be negotiating the costs of the future today. When we do not, we are wagering one generation's right to live versus another generation's right to drive an SUV and live in a house the size of a grocery store.
