Baller of the Week
Foes of mountaintop-removal mining got a break late Friday when a federal judge blocked four permits for mines in West Virginia. The permits, issued by the Army Corps of Engineers, had said it was A-OK for Massey Energy's subsidiaries to fill valleys with the dirt and other detritus left over from shearing off mountaintops to get at coal seams. But U.S. District Judge Robert Chambers said the Corps had not fully weighed the effects of such dumping on headwater streams -- 1,200 miles of which were damaged by the practice between 1985 and 2001 -- and sent the permits back for further consideration.
- (this is not actually him. But this pic says it all..."WTF")
So, for ballin' out and straight-up serving those mountaintop-removing, exploit-mining, valley-polluting coal miners, U.S. District Judge Robert Chambers is this week's Baller of the Week. Judge, The Envirolution salutes you
The Envirolution Spotlight
-
America’s oceans are in peril.
Overfishing, bycatch, and habitat destruction have depleted once bountiful fish populations and jeopardized the oceans’ capacity for sustaining life.
The Conserve Our Ocean Legacy (COOL) campaign is a non-profit, non-partisan campaign working to end overfishing and to build support for healthy ocean policies in the United States.
Question of the Week?!?!?!?
What do you say to a global warming skeptic???

WHY DO WE NEED AN ENVIROLUTION?
Globally, every 24 hours, we consume and release the same amount of energy that the earth needed 27 years to store, every year we lose 25 billion tons of fertile topsoil, and every year, somewhere between 20,000 and 100,00 species go extinct.
ARE YOU READY TO STEP UP?
We call on Our Generation to unite, create accountability and take dedicated action in advancing society towards one that values its environmental and social wealth as much as its financial. We call on current leaders to step up as role models and help Our Generation in this endeavor. Together, we will develop the platform, network and forum necessary to empower Our Generation to step up and make a difference.

Yale Envirolution Conference
We are going to officially LAUNCH THE ENVIROLUTION with a conference at Yale, April 28. The theme of the conference is going to be: "Lessons from our mentors: Advice for Students from Current Leaders of Environmental Progressivism"
Big ups to Tina and Tim for stepping up and making this a reality.
Got skills on the mic?
Spoken word, freestyle, poetry, anything…. Step up, the mic is yours.
Make the Switch
One of the easiest things that we can do to LIVE IT is make the switch over to renewable energy. In most places, it's really as easy as a couple clicks on a website, and usually doesn't cost more than $5-$10 extra a month (a small price to pay to help thrust renewable energy into the mainstream!!).
For those of you in NYC, go to the ConEd Solutions website and click on the "For Residential Costumers" link.
