1) Sempra Energy is proposing a large coal-fired power plant in Nevada that would pollute the air over the Black Rock Desert wilderness area and deplete water resources.
2) Friends of Nevada Wilderness is opposing this project and the air monitoring tower associated with it. They are working to block the project.
3) There are also proposals to build a nuclear waste railroad through wilderness study areas in Nevada and to allow concentrated helicopter overflights over the Sloan Canyon National Conservation Area, both of which Friends of Nevada Wilderness opposes.
The document summarizes Friends of Nevada Wilderness' accomplishments over the summer, including trail maintenance and restoration projects. A trail crew cleared 10 miles of trail in the Toiyabe Crest National Recreation Trail and installed new informational kiosks. The group also conducted field reviews and inventories in the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. Volunteers helped remove old fences and culverts to improve habitat. The organization is expanding partnership projects in southern Nevada and looking forward to continued wilderness protection.
The document summarizes the Citizens' Wilderness Proposal for eastern Nevada, which nominates almost 50 areas and over 3 million acres of public land for wilderness designation. It discusses key areas in the proposal like the Delamar Mountains and Schell Creek Range. It encourages contacting Senators Reid, Ensign and Congressman Gibbons to express support for protecting lands in eastern Nevada as wilderness. It also announces volunteer opportunities and merchandise to support Nevada wilderness.
Steve Pellegrini is a third generation Lyon County resident who fell in love with the Bald Mountain area. He has hiked and camped on nearly every acre of the proposed wilderness area and wants to see it protected in its natural state for future generations. Pellegrini and his friend Art Shipley have formed a Friends of Bald Mountain group to educate local communities about the value of designating Bald Mountain as wilderness. Their efforts include presentations to civic groups and meetings with county commissioners to advocate for strong protection of Bald Mountain and other wilderness areas in Lyon County.
The document summarizes the Lincoln County Conservation, Recreation and Development Act of 2004, which proposes to designate 14 new wilderness areas totaling 769,611 acres in Nevada. It would protect ecologically important areas like the Big Rocks Wilderness and release other areas from further wilderness consideration. While less than the organization's 2.5 million acre proposal, it protects more land than any previous Nevada bill. The bill aims to balance various stakeholder interests in developing and protecting public lands.

1) Friends of Nevada Wilderness volunteers partnered with the Forest Service to remove over 20 instances of graffiti from the popular Mt. Rose Wilderness trail to Church's Pond in August.

It established boundaries for the new wilderness areas, withdrew them from commercial uses, and provided for their administration and protection as part of the National Wilderness Preservation System while allowing for continued livestock grazing and without asserting new water rights.
Sust cities as organisms, a new thermodynamics perspectiveMae-Wan Ho
Inaugural lecture for Prigogine Medal 2014 award, Siena, Italy, 23 September 2014
Abstract
Well over 50 % of us now live in cities while world population growth and urbanization continue unabated. There is an urgent need for policies that can address both the challenges and opportunities for sustainable development in urban settings.
Within the past two decades, the idea of cities as fractal structures resulting from social and economic processes has led to a transition in thinking of cities as machines to cities as organisms. Independently, the concept of ‘sustainable cities’ had emerged earlier, with many successful implementations already underway. A sustainable city is one able to feed and power itself using land and energy efficiently with the least environmental pollution and impact on climate change, minimizing wastes and recycling and reconverting wastes into resources.
In my own work, coherent fractal space-time structures are the key to a circular thermodynamics of organisms and sustainable systems that achieves the state of minimum entropy production and dissipation that Ilya Prigogine had proposed as a conjecture. I shall show how the principles of circular thermodynamics can be applied to sustainable cities.
This document provides information about various wilderness conservation efforts and volunteer opportunities with Friends of Nevada Wilderness. It discusses a new public lands bill process that could designate new wilderness areas in Lyon and Mineral Counties, Nevada. It also profiles longtime Friends volunteers Ursula and Howard Booth and their contributions to protecting Nevada's wild places through restoration projects. Additionally, it summarizes Friends' volunteer activities over the summer, including projects for National Public Lands Day and assisting with landscape restoration at the Burning Man festival.
The document discusses threats to wilderness protection on public lands in Nevada and across the western United States. It summarizes 1) the Bush administration and members of Congress are working to dismantle the BLM's policy of considering wilderness protection during land use planning updates, which could remove protections for over half of existing wilderness study areas, 2) an upcoming proposal from the Nevada Wilderness Coalition to designate wilderness areas in eastern Nevada, and 3) an upcoming concert event in Reno and Las Vegas called "Forever Wild" that will benefit the Friends of Nevada Wilderness organization.
