It will always be Denali
That’s terrible news. I spent a year in Arizona and it’s heartbreaking seeing what mining has done to some of that landscape.
I wish people could realize that sometimes you just can’t have the minerals due to the environmental cost. I have zero faith that Northern Dynasty won’t cause massive environmental impact over the long term.
It is somewhat reassuring that I can’t find any more details speculating on Pebble’s approval online outside of the source you provided that I’m subscription blocked from reading.
Thanks for the information, so about 10% of the state population. I have been looking at ways to get more involved locally but in reality this means looking at non-local groups in Anchorage.
That said, seeing that there are potentially 76k like minded individuals does make me feel a bit better.
I was thinking about this earlier and I’m scared about what this might mean for the future of the Pebble Mine, which we were previously successful in blocking. Bristol Bay has the greatest salmon run on our planet, and it supports a massive ecosystem, humans included, as well as a huge portion of our fishing economy in Alaska. Being a Democrat in Alaska is a very isolating feeling.
Awww, is the world’s greediest man not making enough money?
Don’t be lazy
Imagine being this confidently wrong
