These are the sources that I read as often as they publish and I have the time:
Heather Cox Richardson's Letters From An American, free newsletter
Jay Kuo's Status Kuo free newsletter
Starhawk's free posting of her current book via Substack
Katharine Beckett Winship's Matter of Kinship, subscribed on Substack (environmental topics.)
Katharine Hayhoe free newsletter on environment (which has migrated over to Substack now I see)
The Contrarian (I chose paid subscription for all their video postings, not sure it was worth it, but I do support their efforts to give all the views on the news. It also is coming in under Substack as I write this...and I didn't choose that. Speaking of algorithms!)
PBS News - the NewsHour
UU Justice North Carolina Friday Action Hour weekly email (I just signed up to see what's happening more locally, but they welcome out of state interest)
The Examined Life a space for curious minds and emotional souls, an imagined community created, written, edited, and nurtured by Ellen Vrana, London UK
Keith Kron's What Really Matters, free newsletter with positive bent of his personal life and ideas, each Sunday a prayer for all things detailed in the world events (some of which I didn't know before.)
National Parks Conservation Association - needs donations, fighting back for National Parks
Vital Signs of Environmental Defense Fund free newsletter of The Latest Climate Stories (links to stories where more in-depth articles may be found)
Volo Foundation (podcast this week in English and Spanish) free newsletter - environmental
Asheville Watchdog free newsletter with local news that includes editorial questions and answers
Net of Light, The Grandmother's Speak monthly free newsletter with indigenous leanings of spiritual and environmental support
Open Culture free newsletter daily with links to articles of science, art and culture
Woodland Bard Substack newsletter, available free but asks for donations, about nature
Yale Program on Climate Change Communication free newsletter on different environmental topics including many surveys of opinions across the world about climate change.
Americans of Conscience Checklist free newsletter with good and bad news and checklist of actions you can take and then let them know you have done so
The Anti-authoritarian Playbook free Substack newsletter which I've only read once
The Big Picture - free Substack, I read a joint publication with Jay Kuo
Emergence Magazine - free weekly environmental newsletter with link to an author, video or article from the magazine, which I also purchase whenever they come out with a new bound volume...a rather costly vanity of mine that I began during pandemic with their first issue (now on number 5).
The New Lede - an initiative of the Environmental Working Group. I don't know who or what the EWG is...but the New Lede gives links to news stories about the environment.
And I have more personal links like The Marginalian which is a favorite free (though I often donate) because it's just so rich a source of literary gems.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI love your rainbow header! I hope the tree is surviving.
The shadow art piece is great.
Great photos of your family.
Take care, enjoy your day and have a great week ahead.
Good morning, I'm lagging behind with this time change...glad to hear from you early and giving positive feedback!
DeleteThat's a great list of news sources. I like HCR and several others. Thanks so much for the listing
ReplyDeleteI'm listening to an interview on The Contrarian this morning with Joyce Vance, from whom I also used to receive a newsletter, but she's slightly too much a legal beagle for me to understand most of what she posts.
DeleteI like the people who translate legalese into English for us and explain the significance. There are so many negatives in some announcements -- an override to a veto of an appeal etc etc -- that I need a guide.
DeleteThat is quite the reading list. And you still have time to write. 😀
ReplyDeleteWell when I start going outside more, the reading gets pushed over to evenings, when I'd prefer to watch TV shows, so it's a toss up. Yesterday I caught up with lots that I hadn't opened even!
Delete...that poor tree could use a good arborist.
ReplyDeleteOh I didn't think it had any problems...that's good to know.
DeleteThat's a very good list.
ReplyDeleteGlad to share, and as always, I check into new areas that have tidbits of intrest.
DeleteI also like these:

Thanks...I'll check them out. And I liked what you said before about science not having just one truth...if we hadn't kept looking further we'd never have come up with quantum mechanics. It continues to evolve with our knowledge.
DeleteWe get some of the same news outlets to liste too here. I love the painting Shadow, it's nice.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to hear. Glad you liked that tree's shadow.
