So, when the grid fails & A/C goes off, remember Europe in the summer of 2003 when 70,000 died from heat. I wonder what the media was focused on instead.🤔
#Vegas saw its fifth day with temperatures of at least 115°F (46°C). During the first nine days of July, ~2.2 billion gallons of water just vaporized from Lake #Shasta. The whole region is at risk of becoming uninhabitable in summer."

Madilynne Medina: #California to return historic amount of land to Native tribe

"The #Shasta Indian Nation will be returned 2,820 acres of ancestral land in northwestern California, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday.

The land return is the largest in California history and comes as a reconciliation effort to apologize to Native communities for historical injustices, the release said.

Newsom's office said he discussed the land return with the Shasta Indian Nation earlier this month after visiting the Klamath River dam removal project, which is on ancestral lands near the California-Oregon border. The project is the largest dam removal and river restoration in the country intended to restore land and more than 300 miles of salmon habitat. The 2,820 acres of land being transferred are associated with the dams, the governor's office said."
