- And the shocking decision by the National Park Service in September 2021 to continue and even expand beef and dairy cattle grazing in the popular Seashore - just north of San Francisco on the unceded land of the Coast Miwok. Cattle grazing should have ended there in the late 1980s. The area had become a National Park by an act of Congress in 1962 and the existing ranches were bought out at market rate with taxpayer funds. The ranchers were given 25 years to find new land and vacate. Instead they expanded the herds, and used political clout in Senate and Congress to extend the leases. The biologist, former BLM employee, author/editor of Welfare Ranching George Wuerthner deplored the September 2021 decision. Not only will the cow herds continue, ranchers will now be allowed to also raise pigs and chickens, plant row corps and open up Bed & Breakfasts. And they will be allowed to kill the Native Tule Elk herd if they grow above the arbitrarily set number of 140 for the Drakes Beach herd. Point Reyes Seashore is the only national park where Tule Elk exist. George Wuerthner wrote: “Point Reyes was a spectacular landscape of open prairies and patches of woodlands, home to 460 species, 876 plants, and many different marine and terrestrial mammals. In addition, it harbors a hundred listed rare, threatened, and endangered species, an incredible diversity given the seashore’s relatively small size. This biological diversity prompted UNESCO in 1988 … to designate Point Reyes as an international biosphere reserve.” “Among the impacts caused by the ongoing livestock operations is the trampling and pollution of the park’s waterways, increased soil erosion, and the spread of exotic weeds. Indeed, one stream in the park has some of the highest coliform bacteria counts found along the entire California coast.” This plan is in direct violation of the law creating the national seashore. The legislation requires that Point Reyes National Seashore “shall be administered by the Secretary without impairment of its natural values … “ And this is where matters stand at the end of September 2021. The matter is headed to the courts and hopes are high that the National Park Service will be found in violation of the legislative mandate to protect the park’s natural values and be made to vacate this plan. Almost seventeen years earlier, I met George Wuerthner a few miles south of Point Reyes in the Marin Headlands. He gave a talk that moved and surprised me and changed my understanding of cattle ranching. The book, Welfare Ranching, had just been released. He is co-author and editor. In essays and photos Welfare Ranching reveals the practices that are ripping apart the ecological fabric of the arid West. Subsidized livestock grazing occurs on more than 300 million acres of publicly owned land. Taxpayer dollars are used to turn the West into a giant feedlot for cattle and sheep. That in turn causes the slaughter of predators, raises the number of endangered species, pollutes rivers and streams, and increases soil erosion, and weed invasion. Wuerthner is an ecologist, author of many books and papers, photographer, wild-lands advocate, and university instructor. I recorded him in December 2004 on the Marin Headlands.

First, common questions, or common takes on misinformation, about the COVID vaccines, answered by scientists, doctors and other caregivers, who are all people of color. Carl Dix, a long-time revolutionary and a founding member of the Revolutionary Communist Party. Carl Dix recently spoke at Revolution Books, New York City, on the COVID vaccines, and why so many people are lining up with the fascists who oppose the vaccine.

Globally suicide accounts for about 20% of all gun-related deaths. But in the United States, the country with the highest per-capita civilian gun ownership, over 60% of deaths from firearms are suicides. What accounts for this disparity? And why do efforts at gun reform continue to fail in this country? This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak with an attorney leading the charge for smarter, saner gun laws in the U.S. Robyn Thomas is the Executive Director of the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. We take a look at trends over the past few years, examine disputes over the interpretation of the Second Amendment, and discuss the persistent political standstill which seems immune to tragedy.

Something incestuous happened: 3 of the "5-Eyes" members met secretly and created their own AUKUS club. Biden is creating a crisis and danger with this new 3-Eyes game. And yet, the Globe and Mail's main complaint is that Canada wasn't invited. All of the major Anglo party leaders have acted stupidly with regard to China, 5-Eyes, and now AUKUS. With "leaders" like this, we should be very afraid. The election went ahead without any debate over our relationship to provocative activities against China. Public opinion in French Canada, after the betrayal of France's sub deal, might have had something to say. The inclusion of Quebec in Canada creates uncertainty for U.S. planners, which may be one reason Canada was kept out of the discussion. Australia's planned acquisition of nuclear submarines changes the game in the region, and Australia's status as a non-nuclear player. It was left to New Zealand's leader to be the voice of reason: no nuclear subs welcome. If AUKUS had been covered by our 24/7 news cycle in the days before the election, we would have had time to reflect on it. But they snuck it by us.

Building Bridges produced by Mimi Rosenberg and Ken Nash Presents: The Supreme Court Licenses Deputizing Private Vigilantes To Control Womens Bodies: the Gutting of Roe v. Wade with Chelsea Wiggins, counsel the National Abortion Federation, to unite, represent, serve, and support abortion providers in delivering patient-centered, evidence-based care. The whole point of the rule of law, is to prevent vigilante justice, to have a sense of rules, rights, and obligations that cant be taken away by the lynch mob says Wiggins who discusses how The Supreme Court has greenlit the overruling of Roe v. Wade overnight. The five justices green lighted a sneak attack on Roe by deputizing private vigilantes and basically allowing private people to sue anyone who assists a woman in procuring abortion, even an Uber driver who drives a woman to get an abortion, can be sued in any jurisdiction, in any part of Texas and face massive, huge fines. This is an end-run, a gutting of Roe

Interview with historian Laurence Shoup about his 2015 book “Wall Street’s Think Tank: The Council on Foreign Relations and the Empire of Neoliberal Geopolitics, 1976-2014”. Shoup explains how the CFR has influenced U.S. Government policy on behalf of it's Capitalist Class and Corporate members from it's beginning, following the First World War, until present. The CFR is dominated by oil corporations, banks and oligarchs with investments in energy and petrochemicals. Beginning in 1990 the CFR initiated a series of studies to determine their role in the ecological crisis and climate change resulting from its members business model and the production and consumption of fossil fuels. In Chapter 8, “Fiddling While the Earth Slowly Burns: The Council and The Ecological Crisis, 1990-2014,” he reveals that the CFR studies show that “....solving the ecological crisis meant questioning the future use of fossil fuels and capitalism itself,....” By 2014 they concluded that their business interests depended on accelerating fossil fuel production, while promoting “adaptation” to the extreme weather events that trapping more energy in the Earth's atmosphere would result in. Shoup offers alternatives to the CFR's “...continuing injustice and ecocide” and speaks of what might be done. Shoup also refers to Joel Kovel, the ecosocialist professor and thinker. Not mentioned but relevant to the interview is Kovel's 2002 book, "the enemy of nature: The End Of Capitalism Or The End Of The World/" , which provides an insightful analysis of why the capitalist elites decided to "Let the World Burn"
