Our goal is to educate our readers, to help them to recognize emerging threats, and to be better prepared for both disasters and negative societal trends.

More Chevron Deference “rulemaking”, expanding Federal bureaucratic power: BLM Adopts Rule Described as a ‘Generation-Defining’ Shift for America’s Largest Land Manager. Here is a quote:
“The Bureau of Land Management on Thursday adopted a long-awaited rule that aims to put conservation initiatives “on equal footing” with oil and gas leasing, grazing and other commercial uses of federal land.
The rule “combines our ongoing work with a vision for conservation to help us manage lands into the 21st century,” BLM Director Tracy Stone-Manning said in a video announcing the rule. “It ensures that the BLM can carry out its multiple-use and sustained-yield mission now and into the future — a mission that includes providing minerals, energy, forage, timber and recreational opportunities, and now a renewed commitment to conservation.”
This shift by the country’s largest land manager has been applauded by conservation and environmental organizations and criticized by oil and gas and agricultural groups.
It will, among other things, allow the BLM to lease land for “restoration” and “mitigation.” The agency said these leases will help it meet water security, biodiversity and climate objectives.”
