Dear BLM, I congratulate you on your new rule preventing predatory mining companies from extorting money from developers of renewable energy. I have no doubt the world's scientists are completely right in saying that the horrific weather events we are already experiencing, like this week's -- and last week's -- tornados in the South, stem from climate change, caused by global warming. That makes clean energy, solar and wind and hydro and thermal, an urgent matter of life and death. I applaud anything and everything you can do to advance development of clean energy, and to block further extraction of coal and oil.
