The difference between the carbon emissions of the rich and the poor within a country is now greater than the differences in emissions between countries, data shows.

The finding is further evidence of thegrowing divide between the “polluting elite” of rich peoplearound the world, and the relatively low responsibility for emissions among the rest of the population.

It also shows there is plenty of room for the poorest in the world to increase their greenhouse gas emissions if needed to reach prosperity, if rich people globally – including some in developing countries – reduce theirs, the analysis has found.

Most global climate policy has focused on the difference between developed and developing countries…

Citizen Sues NH Fish and Game

Exposing the Big Game's avatarCommittee to Abolish Sport Hunting Blog

PUBLISHED JANUARY 16, 2023 · UPDATED JANUARY 26, 2023

In New Hampshire any taxpayer who is eligible to vote has the constitutional right to petition the Superior Court if that citizen believes a government entity is misusing public funds.

Right now, one citizen is doing just that, with alawsuit against the NH Fish and Game Department. The lawsuit alleges that the NH Fish and Game Department, which is funded by taxpayers, caters to a minority of the population — those who hunt, fish, and trap — rather than representing the interests of all New Hampshire citizens.

Among the proudest moments in my young, coming-of-age years were two events: passing the hunter’s safety test as a newly minted teenager in the Upper Midwestern state where I grew up, and earning the state-issued permit to drive a snowmobile, which I got prior to securing an auto driver’s license, so I could get to hockey practice on outdoor ice in winter.

Regarding hunter’s safety, our instructors were people of esteem in my small town. Along with weekly sessions…

KALAMAZOO, Mich. — One Kalamazoo man appeared in court on Wednesday for showing what one officer called “no respect for the resource or ethics of fair chase.” ‘

Scott Kevin Meisterheim, 55, is facing a long list of charges for hunting violations, mostly related to his deer hunting practices.

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources launched an investigation into Meisterheim’s hunting behavior back in Febrary 2022, thanks to severalpoaching tips.

James Nason, a conservation officer in Kalamazoo County, immediately looked into the tips, talking to witness about Meisterheim’s hunting activity in 2021.

Nason collected evidence indicating Meisterheim snatched at least 11 deer from October to December of that year, including three deer on the first of October, and that Meisterheim believed he was “tagged out” the first weekend…

The largest glacier between the high peaks of Mount Rainier and Glacier Peak has melted away after a long battle with global warming.

For thousands of years, the Hinman Glacier graced the crest of the Washington Cascades in what is now King County.

Fifty miles due east of downtown Seattle, Mount Hinman sits deep in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, midway between Snoqualmie Pass and Stevens Pass.

Nichols College glaciologist Mauri Pelto led a team to Mount Hinman in August 2022, as he has most summers since 1984. This time, they found its namesake glacier was no more.

In its place were just a few stranded patches of snow and ice.
