Ecological Wisdom
Ecological Wisdom
Human societies must operate with the understanding that we are part of nature, not separate from nature. We must maintain an ecological balance and live within the ecological and resource limits of our communities and our planet. We support a sustainable society which utilizes resources in such a way that future generations will benefit and not suffer from the practices of our generation. To this end we must practice agriculture which replenishes the soil; move to an energy efficient economy; and live in ways that respect the integrity of natural systems.
Dallas Gas Drilling Task Force
Fri, 06/17/2011 - 12:38pm — everhadIt looks like the Dallas Gas Drilling Task Force may be getting stacked to favor polluters. The task force member selection committee interviewed the first set of 10 candidates on Tuesday 6/14. My impressions are that five of the candidates are solidly in favor of the drilling industry (Brian "Patrick" Shaw, Bruce Bullock, Scott Deatherage, John McCall, Jon C. Napper). Two more appear to have some ties favoring the industry, Frank Lopez due to the American Lung Association - Chesapeake Energy relationship and Margaret Keliher who stated a concern for economic development.
