The widespread view that fossil fuels are “dirty” and renewables such as wind and solar energy and electric vehicles are “clean” has become a fixture of mainstream media and policy assumptions across the political spectrum in developed countries, perhaps with the exception of the Trump-led US administration.

The U.S. Military Entrance Processing Command, in a memo issued last week, said that “during the medical history interview or examination, a history of COVID-19, confirmed by either a laboratory test or clinician diagnosis, is permanently disqualifying.”

Many people think of renewable energy as a new form of technology, but people have been harnessing nature’s power for transport, heating, and lighting for thousands of years, if not longer. After all, windmills have been grinding grain and wind has been powering sailboats since time immemorial. The sun’s warmth has always kindled fires to warm homes and cook food, and geothermal energy has naturally heated hot springs.

Army veteran Seth Kastle had everything going for him when he came home from serving 16 years overseas. That's why it was so confusing to him when his life began to fall apart. He had a job, a loving wife, family, and friends. He knew things would be different when he moved back to Kansas, but he didn't think they'd be that different. But he felt an extreme anger building up inside, a fire inside his chest that he couldn't explain or get rid of.

The biggest new star quarterback of NFL doesn't get a lot of free time. Practicing is as important as game time, so when the time comes to relax, it's understandable that a young football star might actually rest.
