    Flagstaff AZ (February 25, 2014) – Experts from the National Renewable Energy Lab and the U.S. Department of the Interior are coming to Flagstaff to participate in a clean energy public forum at the Museum of Northern Arizona at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 26.

    The Future of the Colorado Plateau Forum: Clean Energy is designed for the community to share its perspectives and clean energy ideas. The forum will focus on alternative means for the region to meet electric needs and reduce carbon to our atmosphere. 

    David Palumbo, Deputy Regional Director for the Lower Colorado Region of the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Reclamation will host the forum. Palumbo will detail commitments made by the federal government to clean energy development and carbon reduction, especially those relevant to Native Americans and the Colorado Plateau.

    “We want to provide the opportunity for everyone to talk about what they would like to see as future energy sources on the Colorado Plateau,” said Robert Breunig, president and CEO for the Museum of Northern Arizona. “This forum is a place for the community to be heard, especially those with ideas they would like considered by federal energy officials.”

    The first Future of the Colorado Plateau Forum hosted by MNA in November 2013 focused on the region’s long history of reliance on coal to generate electricity at the Navajo Generating Station.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
