OK,.... The mid-term elections are over, altho some vote counts are not yet complete, and it looks like we'll be seeing some changes in the area of the environment and conservation of resources. For example, the media has reported that there is a renewed push to approve the Keystone Pipeline. Since there're several major projects on the drawing board around the country with politicians lining up to make themselves over to be perceived as "doers", it follows that we can look forward to the Delta tunnels, more dams, mining on the Smith River more development and ever increasing demands on our natural resources could/will become a part of our reality. All of these projects are two edged swords as they have potential negative effects on conservation/environment but create new economic opportunities in the form of growth/jobs. Depending on which side of the fence you're on, all of this could be good or bad.
