Gold and Mercury: The Downside of a Golden Gold-Rush Opportunity | Rebecca Solnit | Orion Magazine

This is the mindset we are fighting. The sins of the fathers. How do you fight this? It's not what our activities are doing, it's all about the damage our ancestors did in a different time. Damage we all see as wrong and have corrected or no longer do. This is a good read into their thought process.

Amazingly embellished to the point of inaccuracy...

Typical attack piece, using cherry-picked statistics to draw conclusions of doom and gloom. Not a peep about the ongoing and constant pollution every year
from lead fishing weights. Not a peep out of her about dealing with ongoing extracting of far more extensive modern day gravel pits (the greens need their
concrete and and gravel). Yes the hydraulic mines raised the riverbeds in the valleys, but millions of acres of productive orchards, of all kinds, give lie to
the "wasteland" images she tries to portray. And so it goes...

Sure. Hydraulic mines are so ugly, that's why they turned Malakoff Diggings into a state park. Its beautifull !
