Laws restricting abortions linked to rise in 'abhorrently high' maternal mortality rates Rising state-level abortion restrictions in the United States were linked to a similar, parallel rise in maternal deaths from 2005 to 2023, according to research presented at The Pregnancy Meeting. ...

Researchers have found that 6 of 10 abortion restrictions โ€” bans on Medicaid funding for abortion, mandated waiting periods, 2nd-trimester abortion bans, ACA marketplace insurance coverage bans, biased counseling laws, and ultrasound requirements โ€” were linked to higher rates of maternal mortality.

This is what authoritarians are never gonna understand: average, everyday citizens do not like watching paramilitary thugs brutalize children. All the vaporware memes in the world can't fix that for them

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

Opinion | EPA is right to reverse Obama overreach If the federal government wants to more heavily regulate greenhouse gas emissions, Congress needs to pass a new law.

If you were holding out hopes that the collapse of the Washington Post into right-wing talking points was temporary, this despicable editorial should shatter that hope.

ICE's Masks Are All a Lie Working for ICE is actually less dangerous than being an elementary school student in America.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America โ€” and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record.

And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once.

The masks are justified by a lie. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-s-mask...

Boycott gasoline & other excessive energy consumption associated with private transportation. EVs are NOT the answer. Refrain from routine daily use of heavy automobiles.

The size of these vertical axis turbines (VATs) makes them easier to place for logistic and esthetic reasons then the towering HATs. There are many great reasons these durable, bird/bat-friendly wind gens are a good bet for future energy needs. After a long life the components are recyclable.

Wind turbines are synonymous with renewables and positive environmental impact, but did you know that Wind Harvesters are even MORE environmentally friendly than their traditional cousins? It's just another part of the small details that make a big difference towards a cleaner world

Wow! We have officially made it past $1,000,000 on our Start Engine campaign! This is a huge milestone in our current raise as we get closer to our goal to help us finance constructing more turbines, and a testament to investor confidence in the mission and goals of Wind Harvest.

The Growing Experiment Of Putting Solar Panels On Farmland Agrivoltaics combines solar panels and agriculture on the same land. Itโ€™ll be an uphill battle for it to hit the mainstream.

NPR's Science Friday cast an excellent segment on Agrivoltaics. The focus on PV deployment on ag land made me wonder about the viability of WH VATs placed in crop/grazing land. www.sciencefriday.com/segments/agr...

The Real Reason ICE Agents Wear Masks Face coverings may work less to protect federal agents from danger than to make it easier for them to do unconstitutional things.

While "global warming" is an accurate description of human caused change, "climate destabilization" might drive home the impacts more explicitly. The GOPartiers are straight up deniers, not skeptics.
