As crews chainsaw Joshua trees, Mojave Desert community protests solar energy project

Mojave town protests solar energy project as crews chainsaw hundreds of protected Joshua trees

When Roy Richards spotted workers cutting down and shredding Joshua trees for a sprawling solar energy project near his Mojave Desert home last week, he started taking photos. “Once the trees go through the shredders, they vanish,” he said, showing a reporter an image of a small pile of brown dust left by the crews. The developer of the Aratina Solar Center has government approval to fell all of the thousands of trees on the site. The solar energy farm won a controversial exemption from rules protecting Joshua trees four years ago after closed-door meetings between industry executives and state wildlife officials. On Saturday, residents of nearby Boron and Desert Lake, as well as other opponents of the project, will rally to demand a halt to the project. Dozens of Joshua trees once stood on this Mojave Desert landscape. They were cleared recently to make way for a large solar energy project. (Roy Richards) A 2020 survey counted 4,700 trees on the project site. Since then, however, the size of the project has been reduced. Hundreds of Joshua trees appeared to have been destroyed in the last week, but on some portions of the site the trees still stand, residents said. Neither the company nor government agencies would say how many trees have been cut down. Avantus, the developer, said fewer trees will be destroyed than the government approved.Heavy equipment has not yet started leveling the land where the trees were felled to prepare for the solar panel installation.Residents fear the earth-moving work will increase the threat of valley fever — a fungal respiratory infection that is transmitted in dust. A local group found the fungus that causes valley fever in samples of topsoil from the five parcels surrounding the towns where the solar panels will be built.“I don’t want another town to go through this,” Richards said.Executives at Avantus say the company is following development rules set by the state and Kern County as they construct the 2,300-acre project, which is planned to produce 530 megawatts of renewable energy. They said they would keep the dust down by minimizing the grading of the land. “Aratina will produce clean, affordable, and reliable energy for hundreds of thousands of Californians, contributing to California’s renewable energy goals,” the company said in a statement. “And as a changing climate forces Californians to endure more frequent and intense heat waves like the one we’re experiencing right now, projects like Aratina will help stabilize the grid and keep the lights on.”Boron, where the poverty rate is twice the state average, will not get access to that green energy. Instead it will be sent hundreds of miles away to wealthier Central Coast and Silicon Valley communities, according to contracts signed earlier by the company. A Joshua tree believed to be 150 to 200 years old rises from the desert near Boron. (Myung J. Chun / Los Angeles Times) The controversy over the Mojave Desert project is an example of the many trade-offs being made as California pushes for a rapid transition from planet-warming fossil fuels to renewable energy. Solar and wind fields are expected to help mitigate climate change — which is one of several factors pushing Joshua trees toward extinction — but they are also tearing up undeveloped land, harming threatened plants and wildlife and causing concern in rural communities. “We need sustainable energy solutions that do not come at the cost of irreplaceable natural treasures,” says a petition that is trying to stop the project. The petition has been signed by more than 51,000 people.Joshua trees create habitat for other species, and Avantus has had to work to relocate the wildlife that lives there.The company said that biologists will be onsite throughout construction to ensure rules set by state wildlife officials are followed. Workers have been trained to notify a supervisor whenever they see wildlife.The site is habitat for desert tortoises and Mohave ground squirrels, which are both listed as threatened under the state’s Endangered Species Act. Avantus said that so far they have found one Mohave ground squirrel and no tortoises.In all, 44 animal species have been found on the project site. One of those is the desert kit fox, a cat-sized canine with long delicate ears and fur on the soles of its feet to protect them from the hot sand of the Mojave.In a 2020 survey of the site, biologists found more than 150 dens used by desert kit foxes.According to the Center for Biological Diversity, kit fox dens are being increasingly destroyed by large-scale industrial energy development. “Even smart, climate-saving clean-energy development like solar projects are often badly sited and destroy important kit fox habitat,” the center says. Kit foxes are among the many species of wildlife that inhabit the area where a massive solar farm is being constructed near Boron. (Roy Richards) Kern County documents say that Avantus must “passively relocate” the kit foxes by blocking their dens with soil, sticks and debris. The dens are then destroyed to prevent the kit foxes from using them again as the panels are erected, according to the documents.Avantus explained in a statement to The Times that the tactics encouraged the kit foxes to move only “temporarily” from the construction site. The company said the perimeter fence has an opening at the bottom so wildlife can return after construction.“Solar panels can provide shade and predator protection, and we have found that kit foxes and other wildlife sometimes do migrate back to an area after construction is complete,” the company said. Fence posts are installed around the Aratina Solar Center recently. (Myung J. Chun / Los Angeles Times) The Aratina project was one of 15 solar projects that Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Fish and Game Commission voted to exempt from rules protecting Joshua trees in September 2020 using a controversial “emergency” regulation. At that time, solar executives argued that the 15 projects had already been through extensive environmental reviews and were so close to construction they were “shovel ready.”Executives representing the 15 projects told the state repeatedly they were ready to construct and that it would be unfair to make them follow new planned Joshua tree restrictions.In reality, executives working on Aratina had just begun the review process of the project at the Kern County planning board, according to documents. Construction did not begin until this summer — nearly four years after the county Board of Supervisors voted to approve the project.“Clearly they were not shovel ready,” said Casey Kiernan, a photographer who lives in the town of Joshua Tree. Kiernan created the petition seeking to stop construction. A stand of Joshua Trees form a unique silhouette against the colors of sunset in Joshua Tree National Park in April 2019. (Mark Boster / For the Times) Melanie Richardson, a nurse whose sons attend schools in Boron, said it was “hard to even watch” as the crews began cutting down the trees.She was part of a team that found the fungus that causes valley fever in soil samples taken across the site.Richardson said she has been working on signs for Saturday’s rally, including one that says, “Why is solar more important than health.”“Nobody wants this to happen,” she said.

So THAT'S Why It's So Important To Get Sunlight Every Morning

Experts say it should be a routine, not a once-in-a-blue-moon occurrence.

On busy mornings before work or school, seeking out some morning sun may feel more like a luxury than a necessity.But there are many reasons why you should aim to get as much early light as possible — and they go way beyond the mood benefits that many people experience.Specifically, morning sunshine can help you sleep better and prepare you for the day ahead, experts say. Here’s how:The sun acts a cue for our daily routine.“We have this term called ‘zeitgebers,’ which is basically German for ‘time-giver,’” said Elizabeth “Birdie” Shirtcliff, a research professor at the Center for Translational Neuroscience at the University of Oregon. They’re environmental cues that “help us know how to set up our daily rhythms.” These time-givers impact many factors, including your cortisol awakening response, which is “the sort of stress hormone version of your body’s get-up-and-go [signal] in the morning,” Shirtcliff explained. It helps you wake up and feel prepared for the day. And the best time-giver in the world is the sun.“The cortisol awakening response actually starts in anticipation of the sunrise, so it starts going up during the last little bit of sleeping. When we anticipate waking up, we have this rise in cortisol, and within the first few minutes of waking up, our cortisol levels spike by about 70% — so literally the biggest stressor your body can go through is just waking up,” Shirtcliff said.When that peak in cortisol doesn’t happen, folks can feel tired and sluggish all day, she said.But some of those time-giver cues are “built into our everyday events, things like the sunshine, or meal times, or when the noise on the street kicks up. All of those time-givers prepare our body to be ready for what’s about to happen,” Shirtcliff explained. “Waking up in the morning, having some sunlight — it’s a great way of helping your body’s rhythm to get ready for the day.”What’s more, exposure to sunlight in the morning “sends signals to our brain to secrete cortisol and suppress melatonin,” Saru Bala, a naturopathic doctor based in Arizona, previously told HuffPost. Melatonin is commonly known as the “sleep hormone.” Our bodies produce the highest amounts of melatonin during the nighttime hours and slow down during the day.It’s important for our natural body clock.Sunlight also plays an important role for our natural body clock, or circadian rhythm, said Dr. Sujay Kansagra, the director of the pediatric neurology sleep medicine program at Duke University Medical Center and the face behind the popular @thatsleepdoc Instagram account.Our circadian rhythm keeps us awake during the day and helps us sleep at night, Kansagra said — and sunlight plays a major role.“They’ve done these [lab] experiments in the past where they had somebody without any cue as to what time it was ― no light-dark signal,” he said.The experiments found that humans’ natural body clock is actually a little longer than the 24-hour day — closer to around 24.1 to 24.2 hours, Kansagra said. If our bodies stuck exactly to that cycle, we’d be inclined to sleep in later. But our circadian rhythm resets every morning when we expose our brains and eyes to light, and that “helps move [it] a little bit earlier. So we don’t run in a 24.2-hour cycle, we run in a 24-hour cycle,” Kansagra said. That’s why getting morning sun is especially useful for those with early-morning obligations like work or school. “Having that early light exposure can be really beneficial to making sure your circadian rhythm doesn’t get too delayed,” he said. Getting sun outdoors is ideal, but sunlight through your windows is important, too.Sunlight is valuable, whether you’re outside or just opening up your bedroom curtains. When it comes to your circadian rhythm, nothing beats getting sunlight outdoors, but if your office gets lots of morning light, that can be powerful, too, according to Kansagra. “It’s still going to be bright enough to do what it needs to do to reset your circadian rhythm,” he said. “It’s not that you necessarily have to be outside, it’s just the overall brightness.” If regularly exercise outdoors in the morning, you’re also in luck. “Exercise in the morning is really, really good for you, especially for that energizing aspect,” Shirtcliff said.There isn’t an exact formula for how much sun you need, but 15 to 30 minutes outdoors is probably enough, said Dr. Jawairia Shakil, an endocrinologist at Houston Methodist Hospital. If you’re getting your sun through your windows, you may need more like 30 minutes to get the benefit, Shakil added.Timing is what’s important, so you should aim to get sunlight within the first few hours of waking up, Kansagra said. Midday light, which starts at about noon, doesn’t have the same effect on your natural body clock.All of this is especially important for night owls and people with seasonal affective disorder.While everyone benefits from morning sunlight, it can be even more crucial for people who tend to stay up late, since they can “easily just go to bed later and wake up much later,” Kansagra explained.Morning sun can help night owls feel more awake in the mornings (when they’re generally sleepy) and advance their circadian rhythm so they become used to waking up earlier.Additionally, it’s also particularly beneficial for folks with seasonal affective disorder. “There’s actually some data out there about seasonal depression that happens when there’s not a lot of sunlight and people are not moving outside as much, and that gets negated by early morning sunlight,” Shakil said.Support Free JournalismConsider supporting HuffPost starting at $2 to help us provide free, quality journalism that puts people first.Can't afford to contribute?

Key Republican releases draft permitting bill as bipartisan talks continue

A key House Republican negotiator has released a draft bill aimed at speeding up approvals for the nation’s energy projects as bipartisan and bicameral talks continue. House Natural Resources Chairman Bruce Westerman (Ark.) released legislation aimed at speeding up environmental reviews and limiting legal challenges under the nation’s bedrock environmental law. The draft comes as Westerman and Rep. Scott Peters (D-Calif.) have been negotiating the issue, known as permitting reform, in the House. On the Senate side, Joe Manchin (I-W.Va.) and John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) announced a bipartisan compromise earlier this year. While Peters and Westerman have been negotiating a joint bill, Peters’s spokesperson said that those talks are still ongoing and confirmed that the newly public draft is from Westerman only. A Westerman spokesperson described the draft as a starting point in bicameral talks. The proposed legislation would limit the use of new science in environmental reviews, as part of an effort to prevent research from stalling a project’s approval. Like the Manchin-Barrasso bill, the Westerman draft would also limit how long opponents of a project have to sue. Westerman’s bill also restricts courts’ ability to block projects just because of insufficient environmental analysis and would only allow them to do so over actual environmental harm. It would also limit the definition of environmental impacts that are “reasonably foreseeable” as a result of a project and therefore subject to review. Critics of this approach have noted that limited definitions could result in the exclusion of climate impacts that occur downstream — if for example a review pertains to fossil fuel production or transport while the bulk of the fuel’s emissions occur later when the fuel is actually burned. Westerman’s draft will be discussed by the House Natural Resources Committee hearing next week.

Environmental groups challenge federal approval of Louisiana LNG export facility

A coalition of environmental groups on Wednesday challenged the federal government’s energy regulator over the approval of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export project in Louisiana, alleging it would harm the Gulf of Mexico’s fisheries. In the challenge, filed in the DC Circuit, the Southern Environmental Law Center argued the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission violated federal law when it authorized Venture Global’s CP2 LNG project in Cameron Parish. The proposed project, which would run 85 miles and connect the export facility to a mainline pipeline in Jasper County, Texas, violates the Natural Gas Act and does not identify a public benefit associated with the project. “There’s a lot of questions and a lot of evidence on the record that contradicts the assertion of need for this project and any alleged public benefits,” but FERC failed to take them into consideration, Megan Gibson, a senior attorney at the SELC, told The Hill. SELC alleges FERC relied exclusively on an agreement between Venture Global and an affiliate to determine public benefit, and did not properly conduct balancing tests to assess the potential harms to the community. The challenge alleges that the project, once operational, would generate more than 8.5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). It further notes that the export facility itself would affect more than 600 acres in the parish. The SELC filed the challenge on behalf of the Natural Resources Defense Council and the local organizations For a Better Bayou and Fishermen Involved in Sustaining Our Heritage (FISH), a Louisiana nonprofit representing indigenous commercial fishermen. SELC previously filed a request for rehearing on the CP2 approval in late July on behalf of the two groups. “Fossil fuel companies and their government allies moved LNG projects into the region and turned our fishing community upside down. Calcasieu Pass LNG has decimated our fishing industry, and we won’t recover if CP2 LNG is built next to it,” FISH founder Travis Dardar said in a statement. “Last month, FERC made a terrible and unjust decision when they approved CP2, but it’s not too late for the court—or even the Commission—to right this wrong.” The Biden administration temporarily suspended new LNG export permits in January pending an assessment of their impacts on climate change, but a Louisiana court ordered them to resume in July. The Hill has reached out to FERC and Venture Global for comment.

Costa Rica Strengthens Fight Against Illegal Fishing with Virtual Reality Training

For the third consecutive year, the course on Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated Fishing (IUU) was held last weekend, where 34 judges, environmental prosecutors, OIJ investigators, and officials from the Ministry of Environment and Energy (MINAE) strengthened their skills to deal with crimes related to this problem. This training program combines theory through lectures given by experts with simulations of practical exercises in virtual environments, thanks to the use of virtual reality. Through the use of avatars, participants experience firsthand the functions performed by the National Coast Guard police forces during the boarding of a vessel suspected of illegal fishing activities. The course is organized by the Training Unit of the Public Prosecutor’s Office and developed in collaboration with the National Coast Guard Service, the Costa Rican Federation of Sport Fishing (FECOP), and Humane Society International (HSI). Ocean Mind and NOAA-Law Enforcement of the United States also participated. Moisés Mug, FECOP’s Science Director, highlighted the importance of this type of training for the country, noting that “the gaps in knowledge in the chain of custody of the cases presented in the courts represent a serious threat to natural resources. These cases, often related to Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated Fishing (IUU), can result in impunity for those responsible. “In addition, this type of virtual practice is a more accessible and efficient alternative in terms of didactic resources available to justice personnel,” he commented. Mug was grateful for the opportunity to support the country’s justice system with this course, as it provided an in-depth approach to the crimes committed at sea. “We are often unaware of the arduous work carried out by the coast guard police in boardings of this nature. The inclusion of virtual reality tools makes it easier to become familiar with and better internalize the issues addressed. This knowledge is very valuable for being better prepared to apply the measures requested by the prosecution or to deliver a fair sentence in an eventual trial,” he said. Illegal fishing represents a significant threat to the economy and the environment in Costa Rica. Around 19,000 sailfish are killed annually due to commercial fishing, and there are frequent reports of illegal fishing, which negatively impacts the country and sport fishing, a sector that generates around $520 million annually. “This course is very important because it provides competencies, tools, and knowledge to all personnel dedicated to the prosecution of environmental crimes, with an emphasis on illegal fishing, so that they can develop their work and present evidence before the Public Prosecutor’s Office,” said Alejandro Alpizar, Deputy Prosecutor.
