So much great news from around the world! You truly amaze me with every issue. The dire wolf news was a bit of an eye roll for me, but I'm heartened to hear the company is also working on red wolf (news to me.) The de-extinction folks have some PR firms working in their favor but I think they have more convincing to do for skeptics, like me, as to why our ecosystems need things that have been gone for more than 10,000 years. I would love to see the passenger pigeon or thylacine return.

Love all this great solar news! Bloomberg's BNEF just wrote that you can't put tariffs on the sun or the wind. (Obviously you can put tariffs on panels, but once they're set up, they'll capture that sweet sweet sunlight for 20-30 years, unlike oil that you have to keep digging up since you light in on fire every time you use it!)

You continue to bring me so much strength and hope in a time where it is perhaps our most scarce and limiting resource in the great rebuilding of our planet. Thank you! 🥹

Cry, the beloved country. America is in such trouble and China continues to amaze. How I hate our two great nations competing instead of cooperating. But perhaps much good will come out if it in the end.
