the backlog for implementing this is decades old; there is no unified voice, and ad-hoc opinionated materials can attract readers quickly, for the wrong reasons perhaps. There is no joy on this topic - its a brutal mess, with more to come. Popular media is going to produce contents like this, again.. and yes there is collective anger under the surface. Somehow, rational thinking must stay alive, while the venting and posturing continues in the open.. It is worth considering Australia, Greece, the far-North scrub forests.. are all facing this, without the budgets and science of California.
