Seriously couldn't be more impressed with the effort for this petition. Well done, Jake. Well done Jeff. Proud of the people that give a spit around here! Hoping for the best today.... you all did you're best. Makes me think we can get some canvassing going before election time....
FWIW - keep the songs. I laugh out loud at these lyrics. Sooooo good, Jeff.
Whatever today's outcome, a huge thank you to Jake, Jeff, and Dr. Sarah! THANK YOU!! We, the citizens of Clallam County, are in action, not just grumbling, about the issues. This is only the beginning. Jeff, I really am looking forward to your radio debut on Friday at 4:00. Excited! See everyone soon.
Jake and Dr. Sara are treasured associates and we are lucky to have them associate here with us on this blog and downtown in front of government officials. Nothing has greater impact on bad government than younger generations stepping up to voice their opinion.
Most of those in power right now claim to be doing things for the younger generation, so when the younger generation shows up its a damning testament that their policies are not working.
Not only have they set up an untenable hamster wheel for retirees, they have set up an untenable hamster wheel for younger generations.
Here we all are. It seems all they can do is another form of stifling dissent.
A smorgasbord of issues. The carbon credit system reminds me of a Star Trek episode where an alien society is encountered that has upgraded the brutality of warfare to electronic wars on computers. When combatant one effects a computer strike that in real war would have killed 100 combatant two must walk the 100 into an extermination chamber. We determine carbon emissions deleterious to human life, so we make those emissions a commodity for sale; similar logic. How many tarps would a homeless person need to purchase a carbon credit and how much will it improve their life ? It is not kindness killing the drug addicted; it is the drug addicted. There are infinite paths to suicide beyond a gun to the head. The kindness just makes their chosen journey longer and more painful. Those who choose rehabilitation will rehabilitate.
Garry, Do you remember Soylent Green, a cult 1973 sci-fi thriller? Same, same. Scary!
It's a nightmarish futuristic fantasy about the controlling power of big corporations, limited food security due to overpopulation, using assisted suicide to feed the people.
I remember! One of my favorites. In the end it was all about control and acquiring even more control. Scary is right. Another one is the Omega Man. Finding a cure for one disease that creates a more devastating disease is relevant today. Oh no, Jennifer, I'm going there....COVID vax.
Let's convert the MAT clinic to a Soylent Green facility, choose your 'trip', and produce water instead of food pellet. I was impressed with the 'furniture'.
Eric, basically the MAT clinic IS a Soylent Green facility...by "assisted suicide". Maybe the (eventual - God forbid) water steward position will cover that if it's to their advantage.
I like your statement, "so we make those emissions a commodity for sale." That sums it all up! For every crises that never goes to waste, we (the dirty rotten scoundrels) can profit immensely because the public is too docile to give a rat's ass. I'm also a Trekkie, Garry. Great series and movies. They always make you think.
International bodies, government agencies, or independent non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can be responsible for issuing carbon credits and setting the standards for their creation.
But can those carbon credits be independently verified? Do the banked emission reduction projects ensure that credits are credible and adhere to standards, building trust in the market? If so, I dare you to point out the entity doing the calculating, the calculation assumptions and methods for creating those carbon credits.
Emission credits created for the purpose of offsetting or mitigating the emissions of another project (like Meta AI computing centers) must by definition be REAL, QUANTIFIABLE and PERMANENT.
If you would play the carbon credit game with any Tom, Dick or Harry who creates and trades carbon credits that were conjured by their own proprietary methodology, then I have a bridge to sell you.
I'm waiting to exhale after today's meeting and to find out if they will block Seeger's petitions. History tells us they will.....
"Despite unanimous commissioner support for the CCD fee weeks ago—ignoring budget errors, unclear data, and condescending remarks from CCD supervisors—will Seegers’ numbers force a rethink?"
Oh, my! It seems Rayonier has found a way to get revenge for the bad treatment their mill received. Funny how so many turned against the mill only after emissions change was forced to ‘clean’ the air by burning particulates into CO2 and much smaller particulates and the carbon monoxide into CO2. Yes, the air looked cleaner, but, I argue, less healthy. Consider the molecular weights of monoxide and dioxide and ask why God might not have wanted catalytic converters on fire. Are there other benefits of monoxide? Is CO2 actually very bad? The old con - watch over here, look up. The CO2 in the atmosphere is an existential threat. But don’t look in your community or home or your kids’ school, you are saving the planet. Welcome to the cult of shortages, crises, fear, pathos, and death, your NGOs and Democrat Party.
I have a Commissioners meeting to get to and some stuff to do, so one of my canned spiels and apologies.

You can't help but wonder what is next.

Denise, I needed that laugh : )
One of my favorites, also. I just watched it about 2 weeks ago!

Wink, wink, Eric.

Don thanks, and keep it up!
Keep Faith.
If we are “right” & this is Justice.. the Good people will prevail.
Maybe we have more pushing to do.. maybe not. 💥🙌🏻
Jake!
When you believe and take the “stand” because it is in good faith and pure at heart.
Winning !! 🥇
Together, we are the “Ant” colony.
🇺🇸💪🏼
Please, someone correct me if I’m wrong. Isn’t it illegal to use government resources to promote a political issue one way or the other?
The Hatch act? that's federal.
Someone needs to explain this to me.If,say, a company produces co2 on the east coast it can buy credits on the say,west coast and it’s ok.
yep. It's based on Global impact of CO2.
It’s based on a fraud, which has evil designs. It’s part of depopulation.
