"Alito does not own stock in either ExxonMobil or Suncor Energy, according to his most recent financial disclosure report, which was filed last year. But at that time, he did hold stock in oil companies ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66, as well as five other firms involved in the energy sector, his financial disclosure report says."

The conservative justice has no financial conflict that would require him to recuse himself from the case, a court spokeswoman told NBC News.

"We ask the public to call their senators and urge them to oppose the Fix Our Forests Act (S. 1462). Alternatively, we ask congress and the public to support the Community Protection and Wildfire Resilience Act (H.R. 582 / S. 3609), a bill that would focus funding on scientifically supported and proven wildfire mitigation strategies."

"Our sequoias are being harmed by human activities, including logging and climate change. Cutting and burning our forests only brings more heat, aridity, and wind, and therefore, the risk of more severe fire. What we are doing is speeding up their demise. If we truly want to 'save' our sequoias, we need to stop logging and burning projects and finally address climate change."

Tulare County decided to cut down this giant sequoia located in Alder Creek Grove after it was reported to still be on fire (from the 2020 SQF Complex / Cast...

"The National Park Service and U.S. Forest Service claimed that seedling plantings and logging operations in the groves would be necessary to save them — or sequoia trees would not regenerate on their own."

"Conservationists say this could mark a turning point for a species that is declining rapidly as the eucalyptus forests they depend on disappear and climate change sparks more frequent, intense wildfires."

"However, loopholes in land-use regulations, ongoing logging, development pressures and weak enforcement still threaten this key koala habitat."

"Experts warn that without stronger safeguards and consistent policies, the protected area may not be able to foster lasting conservation gains for koalas and other species."

“When I was a kid, forestry was more sustainable,” Mark Graham said, leaning against a massive tree trunk. “Now 30-tonne industrial machines bulldoze everything in their path.” He’s an ecologist who’s worked for state and federal governments — and has often been at odds with the forest...

"Despite the spate of rightwing hate, the wildlife crossing has found a finish line. The project will be officially 'open for animal business' on 2 December, Pratt announced at an event for Earth Day this week."
