Myrtle spurge is the invasive plant from hell, yet we allow it to grow in yards all over Salt Lake. It’s caustic sap just sent two kids to ER, @sltrib https://t.co/XSZ68tgNz4

It’s a good day in our fight against the climate crisis, as the United States is once again a Party to the Paris Agreement. The work to reduce our emissions has already begun, and we will waste no time in engaging our partners around the world to build our global resilience.

Avalanche control work continues in Little Cottonwood Canyon today as our crews work to clean up snow&debris from the road. Here’s video of a helicopter triggering slides in those hard-to-reach areas (Coalpit). ⁦@UDOTavy⁩ ⁦@UDOTcottonwoods⁩ ⁦@PowderbirdHeli⁩

@leavenotrace @BackpackerMag On an individual level, sure. But what about when for-profit social media influencers, after being privately notified that their content does NOT promote LNT principals, won't remove/update/fix their content?

All plastic in this video came from a single river - the Rio Ozama - which will have an Interceptor installed in a few months from now.

Hope this will soon be history!

@patagonia's salmon doc was very interesting. I had not thought about the economics of fish hatcheries, or the unintended negative impacts on fish genetics. Crazy to think of a hatchery salmon costing, in some cases, thousands of dollars per adult fish. https://t.co/oxF2La56QF

The title of the article says it all. But read it to understand the reasons for the urgency. https://t.co/qSz6UkjUQ4

@ibogost Holy crap that ad was like jumping through a time portal back to my childhood.

Three of these are available in Kanye's store for over $200 a piece and one of them I made in Paint in one minute. Guess which is which

@wunderground Your Android app keeps auto-selecting a wildly inaccurate personal weather station here in SLC, and I can't find a way to make it stop. Love the app, but this makes it useless at my house. Is there a solution?

[High Country News @highcountrynews]

Traditionally, rural counties across the West have sought to undo state and federal environmental protections and open up land for logging and other industries. Now, some want the power to create additional environmental protections. https://t.co/cktrMmGE6O

In the 1930s, big auto dreamed up freeways and demanded massive car infrastructure.

Erin Valenti was such a force for good. It’s hard to imagine the Silicon Slopes community without her in it. Our hearts go out to her husband and family during this unimaginable time. We are devastated.

@Austen @sunnywash Where do US held foreign securities fit in to this graph? Crazy how much student dept has ballooned though...
