Trump brings farmers to White House to brag about his policies - but also to bash Somalis and environmentalists One month into a war that has sent fuel prices through the roof and sparked fears of fertilizer shortages that could wreak havoc on the world’s food supply, President Donald Trump is attempting to convince American farmers that everything is fine and they should be grateful to him for taxpayer handouts meant to soften the blow from his tariff policies. The president took to the Truman Balcony at the White House on Friday to address what he billed as “the single largest gathering of American farmers that the White House had ever seen” and buck up attendees by touting new policies that he claimed would save farmers money and make it easier for them to remain in business despite the spiraling input costs as a result of his own handiwork. He claimed farmers had been “crushed” by the policies of his predecessor, Joe Biden, who he accused of having “crippled the American agriculture industry with brutal restrictions” and failing to negotiate “even a single new trade deal on your behalf.” “Now the American farmers, ranchers, growers and producers, once again of a true friend and champion in the Oval Office,” Trump said, as he bragged about having rescinded environmental regulations...

Pipeline in 2015 oil spill is flowing again. Environmentalists have been fighting it for years An oil pipeline that was shut down after a 2015 environmental disaster is flowing again after President Donald Trump issued an executive order earlier this month. California mounted a legal fight against the pipeline this week. But environmentalists have won court rulings against the pipeline in recent years too. Before state Attorney General Rob Bonta filed his suit, the Environmental Defense Center, a nonprofit focused on Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, was already involved in its own ongoing lawsuit to keep the pipeline system shutdown. Last year, a judge granted the group a preliminary injunction to keep the pipeline closed. “ It's a really dangerous project," said Linda Krop, chief counsel for the Environmental Defense Center. “It would not only cause harm to the environment, but it also threatens public health and safety and our local economy.” The backstory The pipeline runs through Gaviota State Park, known for its natural beauty and coastal biodiversity. The 2015 Refugio Oil Spill released more than 123,000 gallons of crude into the waters off Santa Barbara’s Gaviota Coast, killing hundreds of birds and other wildlife, and spreading more than a hundred miles south into Los Angeles. The Santa Ynez offshore oil...

Young environmentalists awarded by government By Esme Yeh / Staff reporter The Ministry of Environment on Saturday held the fourth Environmental Youth Leader Awards Ceremony to recognize local young environmental activists’ contributions. The event’s main message was “change begins with you,” and it was aimed at honoring young environmental leaders who can bring environmental protection ideas into practice, the ministry said. Applicants were aged 13 to 29 this year, and their topics of interest ranged from artificial intelligence-driven governance and environmental reporting to artistic curation, it said. When addressing climate change related issues, young generations not only have sharp insights, but can also combine technical and cultural innovations with community initiatives, the ministry said. The Environmental Leadership Awards — the grand prizes — went to photographer Lee Yu-chen (李語晨) and National Chengchi University graduate student Tsai Pei-yun (蔡沛芸). Based in Taitung County’s Changbin Township (長濱), Lee’s photography work is focused on raising public awareness about marine waste. She reshapes the marine debris she collects into lifelike marine life to produce photos aimed at prompting viewers to rethink their relationship with the ocean. Lee also collaborated with food artists to create “marine debris dishes” that used food ingredients to mimic the textures of marine debris that...

Environmentalists hit out at plan to create themed forests in Delhi's Ridge The Delhi government’s plan to develop themed forests across parts of the Ridge has drawn criticism from environmental activists, who have raised concerns over potential ecological disturbance to one of the Capital’s most-sensitive green zones. The proposal involves creating a series of “special vans” or themed plantations in select pockets of the Central Ridge and South Ridge, covering over two acres. Officials say the initiative aims to enhance green cover, while blending ecological restoration with cultural and traditional concepts. However, activists have flagged that the Ridge, considered the “lungs” of Delhi, is a protected forest area where any intervention must prioritise conservation over landscaping or thematic redesign. They have cautioned that introducing curated plantations and increased public footfall could disrupt existing biodiversity and fragile ecosystems. “This proposal reflects a troubling mindset, one that sees forests as spaces to be redesigned rather than ecosystems to be protected. Converting natural forests into curated ‘special parks’ fragments habitats, disrupts biodiversity and replaces living, self-sustaining systems with controlled landscapes. We cannot keep mistaking beautification for conservation. A forest is not an aesthetic project. It is a lifeline and once altered, its wild essence is not easily restored. It needs to be left alone,” said...

Environmentalist hits mistreatment of whale stranded in Sultan Kudarat COTABATO CITY (MindaNews / 21 March) — A video footage showing how people treated a whale that was stranded at a beach in Kalamansig town in Sultan Kudarat around 8:30 a.m. on Saturday has drawn criticism from an environmental advocate. The sea mammal, identified as a sperm whale, according to the local government of Kalamansig, was stranded at Poral Beach in Barangay Sta. Maria. It is estimated to be 54 feet long, 36 feet wide, and weighs approximately 20 tons. Witnesses say the whale was spotted while approaching the shore, quickly becoming the center of attention as people gathered to take photos and videos of the rare event. But instead of providing assistance, a crowd of onlookers and beach goers swarmed the weakened mammal around 8:45 a.m. “Some individuals reportedly went as far as recklessly hopping on the whale’s back as it struggled to swim away, causing its belly to scrape against the shallow seafloor,” Hazi Masukat, an environment advocate who saw the incident, said. Masukat described the incident as a “shameful display of human ignorance.” Despite warnings from others to stop riding the animal, one man reportedly retorted, “It can’t leave anymore; it’s going to die anyway.” Nevertheless, a...

Environmentalists say Washington County renewable energy project is too near national wildlife refuge A Florida-based developer has proposed a battery storage project southwest of Portland that could boost the electrical grid’s reliability at a time when demand for more renewable energy is climbing. But local environmental advocates say its location, directly across from the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge, could impact wildlife, and they are calling for more transparency and public input. Renewable energy company BrightNight’s proposed Nottingham Storage Project would build a 200-megawatt battery story facility in unincorporated Washington County. BrightNight senior vice president of external affairs Scott Bolton said this specific project was identified as a need by Portland General Electric as its customer base continues to grow — and to help PGE meet the state’s carbon emission reduction goals. BrightNight is under a 20-year contract with PGE and will develop, own and operate the facility. In turn PGE customers will benefit from the additional renewable energy stored at the facility. Bolton said the project will deliver affordable and reliable electricity and improve grid reliability. Battery storage can help electric utilities deliver more power than they generate when there’s a surge in demand — like when more people turn on air conditioning on abnormally hot days. It can also store excess...

Budding environmentalists connect with nature in Newport Beach event Nature lovers and families came together on Saturday, cultivating plants, creating art and connecting with local conservation groups at the Newport Beach Civic Center. The gathering was hosted by the nonprofit Wildlife Jewels in advance of Tuesday’s World Wildlife Day, an annual United Nations-designated celebration of nature. The theme for 2026 focused on the ecological, medicinal and cultural significance of plants. Many of the 70 people who gathered for the Newport Beach event armed themselves with shovels to plant milkweed, and various flowers to attract butterflies and other pollinators to Civic Center Park. “Every single action can make a huge difference,” said Azi Sharif, founder of Wildlife Jewels. The nonprofit she runs uses art depicting wildlife as an entry point to discussions about conservation and environmentalism. They host flower-planting events, beach cleanups and an animal rescue team in Orange and San Diego counties, and also raise funds support of rescue efforts abroad. Ladera Ranch Middle School student William Attreed, 12, has helped out at several of Wildlife Jewel’s past conservation events, and was among those planting flowers on Saturday. He was joined by his father, David Attreed, who said it’s important his son is taught to be a good steward...

In Western Mass., environmentalists fear that solar farms are fire hazards Amid the federal crackdown on climate action and attacks on offshore wind, Massachusetts officials are racing to expedite the buildout of clean energy. But fears that the energy storage systems attached to these panels, which store energy for when the sun isn’t shining, could burst into flames threatens to stall progress. These concerns are especially strong in the Hilltowns, where proposals to install solar farms have surged. Even in places where many residents describe themselves as pro-solar environmentalists, some are fighting these projects tooth and nail because of the risk of battery fires, though rare, worrying that towns with volunteer fire departments and no municipal water supply would be especially vulnerable to a blaze. In addition to the Worthington project, solar farms have been proposed in nearby Blandford, Plainfield, and Southampton. Worthington and Blandford residents have voted to adopt “temporary moratoriums” on large-scale solar installations and battery energy storage systems, and similar measures have been discussed in nearby towns. “I’ve been pushing for solar since the ’70s,” said Michael DeChiara, chair of Shutesbury’s Energy and Climate Action Committee. “It’s a very weird thing for me to say we should not be doing solar, but it’s where the solar should go...

US: Trump's EPA sued by environmentalist, health groups US President Donald Trump has revoked a 2009 EPA declaration that determined carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases as a threat to public health and welfare. Several groups are now challenging this decision in court. Several US environmental and health groups filed suit against the administration of President Donald Trump over the repeal of a key scientific rule behind federal climate change-related regulations. The suit was filed in the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in Washington, arguing that the administration's revoking of the 2009 "endangerment finding" is illegal. The 2009 "endangerment finding" came about as a result of a prolonged legal battle that ended in a 2007 Supreme Court ruling, Massachusetts v. EPA, where it was determined that greenhouse gases qualify as pollutants under the Clean Air Act. The ruling directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to determine whether they pose a danger to public health and welfare and it did so, based on overwhelming scientific consensus that six greenhouse gases threaten public health and welfare by fueling climate change. But Trump has dismissed concerns about the consequences of repealing 2009 "endangerment finding." The US president has claimed that human-caused climate change is a hoax and...

Maryland Environmentalists Face Awkward Choice: Support Moore's Budget Raid or Fight for Climate Goals Maryland environmental groups are backing Gov. Wes Moore’s plan to redirect more than $700 million from the state’s main clean energy fund while at the same time pushing for legislation to prevent similar raids in the future and secure hundreds of millions of dollars in guaranteed yearly climate spending going forward. Securing that commitment from Maryland lawmakers, currently in Annapolis for the 2026 legislative session, is one of the top legislative priorities for advocacy groups and coalitions operating in Maryland, among them the Sierra Club, the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) and the Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN). Moore’s Fiscal Year 2027 budget proposal would draw $725 million from the Strategic Energy Investment Fund (SEIF), which collects penalties from utilities for failing to meet the state’s renewable energy mandates, depleting the fund by 82 percent and leaving behind $164 million for clean, efficient energy investments. The largest portion, $292 million, would be used to plug the state’s estimated $1.5 billion budget deficit. A recently proposed bill, the Lower Bills and Local Power Act, would direct $100 million in utility rebates disbursed as roughly $40 for every eligible household and another $100 million for gap financing to support solar and battery...
