a dilemma for the by did ministration. how to obtain the materials needed to create clean energy and stave off global warming without destroying irreplaceable ecosystems. like this one, environmental is say, a better organized approach is the answer. and we were encouraging the biden administration to do with a national level plan for now. the lucky little buckwheat will survive, but there will be more battles ahead and more hard choices to be made on the road to a clean energy future for the planet. rob reynolds al jazeera esmeralda county, nevada. ah, my time for a quick check of the headlines here on iraq to try and fight as a dismiss, the government unilateral cease fire on monday, the rebels capture the regional capital mcclay. they say they will fight to secure the whole region.
