In Fall 2018, the Oregon Renewable Energy Center and Population Health Management Research Center at the Oregon Institute of Technology are teaming up to host top experts in renewable energy and energy efficiency from throughout the Pacific Northwest. Guests will present on strategies for the Klamath Basin to achieve its full potential and become a clean energy leader. “We are very excited to bring this workshop series and experts in renewable energy and energy efficiency to the Klamath Basin,” said Nicholas Caleb, grant recipient from the Oregon Renewable Energy Center and co-organizer of the Klamath Basin Clean Energy Series. “We believe -- as do many others in the Pacific Northwest -- that the Klamath Basin is ripe for a clean energy transition that will stimulate the local economy, improve public health, lower energy costs, allow the community a large degree of energy independence, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.” The series is part of a larger project that aims to set the stage for sustainable economic development planning that takes into account the impact of energy choices on community health. The project brings together areas of business, economics, sociology, renewable energy, engineering, and population health management. Dr. Sophie Nathenson, Director of the Population Health Management Research Center and co-lead on the project said, “the Clean Energy Series will set the stage for innovative, strategic planning that will connect the dots between energy efficiency, economic development, and health. The connections are there, and being able to learn from others, build on our local strengths, and set up a structure to include health impact into the mix is can have long lasting benefits to our wellbeing.” The Population Health Management Research Center is a hub of student learning-by-doing, working on projects for local organizations advancing the health of the region covering areas of education, food systems, and prevention. The research center will also host a course this fall for students of all majors at Oregon Tech on sustainable economic development. “Having such a distinguished and diverse group of experts coming together for this workshop series, sharing their knowledge and experiences across the spectrum of energy efficiency, cleantech, sustainability, economic policy, and health highlights how a collaborative multidisciplinary approach not only enables, but enhances what can be done to provide sustainable economic growth to rural communities through the natural assets that these communities have,” said Dr. Mason Terry, Director of the Oregon Renewable Energy Center. “The Klamath Basin has tremendous potential to be a pillar in our energy infrastructure as our state, regional, and national energy generation mix shifts to renewable sources purely based on the economics and return on investment.” Many significant changes are rapidly taking place in energy markets, technology, and policy. The Oregon Public Utility Commission recently adopted rules for a Community Solar Program that will bring smaller scale projects (under 3 MegaWatts) to the Basin while the Oregon legislature will consider Clean Energy Jobs legislation in 2019 that could change the landscape for renewable energy development. With abundant solar and geothermal energy potential as well as the expertise of the Oregon Institute of Technology, organized community support for a renewable energy and energy efficiency transition could be transformative for individuals, families, and communities throughout the Basin. The Clean Energy Series will take place on 4 evenings in Fall 2018 -- Sept. 20, Oct. 25, Nov. 15, Dec. 6 -- from 5:00 - 7:00 PM at the Gaucho Collective in Klamath Falls. The workshops are open to the public and participants are encouraged to RSVP in advance. Time: 5:00 - 7:00 PM Dates: Sept. 20, Oct. 25, Nov. 15, Dec. 6 Place: Gaucho Collective, 1038 Main St, Klamath Falls, OR 97603 Workshops are open to the public.

Interior Department is withholding nearly $500,000 of funding that would support critical water quality research in the Upper Klamath Lake WASHINGTON, D.C. – Oregon’s U.S. Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden today pushed U.S. Department of Interior Sec. Ryan Zinke to reverse his decision to withhold from the Klamath Tribe almost $500,000 in already allocated funding for critical water quality research in the Upper Klamath Lake. “The loss of this previously approved and dedicated funding source for understanding the impact of water quality on the health and wellbeing of the C’waam (Lost River sucker) and Koptu (shortnose sucker) will undermine ongoing efforts to prevent their extinction,” the senators wrote about the funding, which has supported research for the past four years. Noting the tribal significance of—and water quality threats facing—the C’waam and Koptu fish in the Upper Klamath Lake, the senators continued, “Any progress on water challenges in the Klamath Basin, either in the short or long term, will be contingent on the willingness of stakeholders to trust one another. The decision to reprogram these funds at the eleventh hour has the appearance of an overtly political decision that will undermine efforts to reach a long-term solution in the Klamath Basin.” The senators requested Zinke adhere to direction from Congress in the Fiscal Year 2018 spending bill and restore the $472,550 in funding immediately. The full letter can be found here and below.

For a comprehensive report of large fires burning in Oregon and Northern California, see RogueWeather.com http://www.rogueweather.com/fire-info/fire-report Nine hours after the Delta Fire north of Redding was reported at 12:51 p.m. PDT on September 5 a mapping flight found that it had burned 15,294 acres. A heat-detecting satellite four hours later saw an additional 4,000 acres on the northwest and northeast sides of the fire. By Thursday evening, it had scorched 22,000 acres and was 0% contained with 1,224 Personnel. On Saturday the Delta Fire was at 36,970 acres and 0% contained. As of Sunday morning, the fire had burned 40, 903 acres, increasing by an additional 4,000 acres overnight. Fire officials say they don’t expect to have containment of the fire until at least Sept. 22. The Shasta County Sheriff’s Office conducted evacuations on both sides of I-5 north of Lakehead to the Shasta/Siskiyou county line. The blaze forced the closure of about 45 miles of Interstate 5. Traffic worsened Thursday when a car and a semitruck collided on Route 299 near Oak Run, leaving the truck jackknifed across both lanes of one of the main detours around I-5. By late afternoon, traffic on the winding, two-lane highway hadn’t moved more than a mile in a few hours. I5 is expected to remain closed indefinitely, authorities said on Sunday.

Authorities in East Java, Indonesia, are trying to stop a wildfire from spreading into core zone of the Coban Wisula forest, home to Javan leopards. The fire is burning within Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, a major tourist attraction. An iconic landscape in the park, known as Teletubbies Hill, has already gone up in flames. A local NGO is monitoring the situation to make sure none of the leopards are flushed out of their habitat and into contact with humans, which could turn violent. Read more

Brazil is second only to the U.S. in its use of chemical pesticides, with many of the chemicals sprayed in Brazil on soy and other crops banned by the EU and the United States. Pesticide poisoning is a major Brazilian problem. In 2016, 4,208 cases of intoxication by exposure to pesticides were registered across the nation – the equivalent of 11 per day (killing 355 people). The ruralista bancada, the powerful agribusiness lobby, is currently pushing an amendment through congress that would significantly weaken Brazil’s 1989 pesticide law. Analysts say the legislation (6.299/2002), dubbed the “Poison Bill” by critics, would make the approval of new pesticides far easier. Brazil’s lax pesticide rules aren’t just a threat to farmworkers. Many toxins are persistent in the environment and in the food we eat. A Brazilian analysis of pesticide residue in foods such as rice, apples and peppers found that of 9,680 samples collected from 2013 to 2015, some 20 percent contained pesticide residues that exceeded allowed levels or contained unapproved pesticides. Transnational pesticide makers such as Syngenta, Bayer and BASF produce pesticides in the EU which are considered highly hazardous – so hazardous, they are banned in their countries of origin – but the firms also sell these pesticides in high quantities to Brazil and other developing nations. Experts say that sprayed Brazilian exports of fruit, vegetables and coffee could be contaminated. Read more

In December 2000 while exploring the depths of Sodwana Bay, South Africa, scuba diver Pieter Venter came face-to-face with something no diver had ever seen alive before. At 320 feet, he and his colleagues encountered a coelacanth, an extremely rare type of fish that has existed for 400 million years—well before the time of the dinosaurs. That colony of about 30 fish has more or less been left alone for the last two decades, but Tony Carnie at The Guardian reports that oil and gas drilling in the area may threaten the endangered species in the near future. Keeping coelacanths around, however, is important. These

strange and little understood creatures are a link to nearly half-billion years of evolutionary history and there’s a lot they can teach us about primitive fish. They have weird fleshy fins that they move in a walking motion, a partial vestigial lung inside their chest and a unique hinged jaw that allows them to open very, very wide. They live to be 100 years old and give birth to live young. They also have a special rostral organ in their nose that allows them to sense electrical currents. And they do all that with a tiny, tiny brain that fills less than 2 percent of their head. Somehow all of that came together to produce the ultimate, albeit odd, survivor. But the big takeaway is this: if a fish in the deep sea can survive 400 million years of comets, volcanic eruptions and everything else history has thrown at it but can’t survive a couple hundred years of industrialized humanity, there’s little hope for the millions of other species on the planet, including us.

Male Pileated Woodpecker (Dryocopus pileatus) feeding chicks. In Florida, by Hal and Kirsten Snyder.

There's something eerily beautiful about this Mauve Stinger (Pelagia noctiluca). It is a widely distributed small pelagic jellyfish, varying in color but generally pink, mauve or golden. It is also bioluminescent, and the most venomous and abundant jellyfish of the Mediterranean Sea, undergoing sporadic blooms which can cause public heath concerns. Like all jellyfish it possesses stinging organoids, called nematocysts, which can discharge a mixture of toxic compounds into preys and predators. For more information : https://buff.ly/2NQswBY Spotted off the Spanish coast by kozoga. https://buff.ly/2NhSv8k Every so often, the nearly intact remains of ancient creatures emerge from Siberia’s permafrost, or perpetually frozen soils. Last year, for instance, a local resident stumbled upon an extinct cave lion cub that had been trapped—and preserved—in the permafrost for thousands of years. Other finds have included a 9,000 year old bison, a juvenile woolly rhino, and ancient roundworms that were reportedly resurrected by scientists. Now, as the Associated Press reports, researchers have made another remarkable discovery in the Siberian region of Yakutia: an extinct baby horse, so well preserved that its skin, hair, tail and hooves have persisted to the present day. The foal was found in the enormous Batagaika crater, which has formed as rising temperatures have thawed the Siberian permafrost, causing ice and soil to collapse into an expansive pit. Scientists believe that exposed layers of soil in the crater could reveal 200,000 years of climate history. And since it began to grow, likely in the 1980s, Batagaika has revealed a number of long-frozen animals. Read more

Evening volunteer: The library is open until 6pm on Tuesdays, Weds and Thursdays. We would really appreciate a volunteer who could help us out with closing tasks for the last hour or so on these days (especially Tuesdays). 2. Story time: If you would like to read two or three stories to a small group or preschoolers, and lead them in a simple craft or activity, the library staff can use your help. 3. Summer Reading Program: There are many opportunities during the summer to help out with this very worthwhile program. 4. Honor collections: These are racks of paperback books, magazines and audiovisual materials that patrons may check out without a library card. By offering these collections, more people in the community can be reached and a greater diversity of materials can be made available without incurring the costs of cataloging and processing items for the general collections. The staff would like to have some help in keeping these racks orderly, attractive and relevant. Check with the librarian for information on how to “adopt a rack”. 5. Help with sorting donations. 6. Go through Books for Sale section and tidy it once a month or so. Stop in at the library and see what they need or give them a call at 541-783-3315.
