Environmental destruction
June 6, 2012. The Whitewater-Baldy fire is now 263,589 acres as of last night's IR flight. It's not the largest fire ever in the west, but at 412 square miles, it is plenty big. This photo is what the Rodeo-Chediski fire looks like today, after 10 years of "regrowth". This is what a large portion of the Gila Wilderness will look like in 10 years from now. This is how the Wilderness Act "protects" our wilderness. Isn't it time to reconsider environmental policies in the USA?
All those new little trees growing? Juniper and scrub oak. Not a Ponderosa pine to be seen.

San Augustin Water Grab: A Battle Won But Not the War
A Battle Won But Not the War

Across the southern states a battle is raging for our most precious resource. The value of water has reached a premium, and it will only increase with time. As the cities and counties of the west continue to grow, so does the need for new water sources to support their ever increasing demands. While the quest for oil is on the forefront of everyone's mind, dollar for dollar, water is by far more valuable. We can live without oil if necessary, but we must have water to survive. During the past few years, several applications have been submitted to the State Engineers Office in New Mexico for the purpose of tapping into the deeper aquifers, waters which were previously deemed unusable and were until now unprotected from such requests. One by one, they have been protested and denied. This is not the end of the effort. Future legislation will support these requests as our cities continue to grow along with the residential demand for additional supplies; water for sanitary and domestic water use is and always will be a priority to developers and communities. The health and welfare of the masses could easily trump the livelihood of the rural ranchers. They are few, rural residents are many. More at Glenwood Gazette...
