This week, I explore B Corps doing good and the toll of seasonal waste. I've also collected a host of ideas on how our choices can reduce waste, support communities, and restore nature — from thrifted treasures to shared experiences, and giving that supports families and ecosystems around the world.

A new study has concluded that solar power plants are now cost-competitive with diesel for many rural Alaska communities, even if solar is only usable during part of the year. (via Alaska Beacon)
Hybrid solar-diesel power is less expensive than diesel alone in parts of rural Alaska, study shows
Diesel prices in remote areas are so high that it’s cheaper to use solar for part of the year, the analysis found, even with the cost of two power plants.

Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.
Air pollution fell substantially as the city restricted car traffic and made way for parks and bike lanes.

Why is Antarctica so important?
Antarctica might feel very remote - until you look at the planet from a different perspective. It's actually central to our world's ocean currents.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Today's US EO orders the Attorney General to identify + take expeditious action to stop enforcement of "all State & local laws... purporting to address “climate change” or involving “environmental, social, and governance” initiatives, “environmental justice,” carbon or “greenhouse gas” emissions."
This executive order confirms that. They are attacking all "state laws" that address climate change, ESG, environmental justice and/or greenhouse gases.
