I really enjoyed two animated films by Nina Paley: Sita Sings the Blues and Seder Masochism. While somewhat similar to each other these are unusual films and well worth watching. I got Sita on Netflix and both are on Vimeo.

On Dec. 25, we lost a giant in the fields of ecology + conservation, Dr. Thomas Lovejoy. Cary was fortunate to have Tom as a founding board member. Since 1996, we have benefitted from his tremendous leadership. He will be incredibly missed.

This is a watershed moment.

Potentially important moment--Biden bars fossil fuel execs, board members from his administration. This could help further break the stranglehold of the natural gas industry on Dem politics eenews.net/eedaily/storie…
