  1. Hetch Hetchy demolition measure defeated in San Francisco

    L.A. NOW

  2. Yes on Proposition 39

    Voters will confront two competing and high-profile initiatives in November that would raise the state's personal income tax to reverse some of the cuts that have been made to schools and other programs. Further down the ballot is another, less heralded proposal that would remove a tax break that mainly benefits multistate companies based outside of California. That measure, <a href="http://lat.ms/SmfQ0m">Proposition 39,</a> would raise an estimated $1 billion a year, about half of which would be dedicated temporarily to making public buildings more energy efficient. Although it is the Legislature's job to solve problems like this one in the tax code, Sacramento has proved time and again that it's unable to do so. And this problem cries out for a solution.

  4. Central issues of Election 2012

    Whoever wins the presidential election in November will confront urgent problems: Should tax cuts scheduled to expire be renewed? Should federal spending be cut to reduce the deficit or would that weaken an already lackluster economy? After one of the hottest summers on record, has the time come for the U.S. to adopt policies to slow climate change? Have sanctions against Iran impeded its nuclear program, and if not, does that make a military strike necessary? What to do about immigration?

  5. Where do old refrigerators go to die?

    The decline of my 10-year-old refrigerator started with an unsettling wheezing sound and ended with a death rattle that would have cost $500 to fix. So I, like 10 million other Americans each year, dropped money on a new fridge and had the broken one hauled away.

  6. Conversion of climate change skeptic not likely to sway GOP

    Are two of the left&rsquo;s most useful villains, Charles and David Koch, not quite as unredeemable as liberals believe? Could it be they might change their minds about climate change and admit that it is real?&nbsp;

  8. Even as climate change turns up the heat, we go on fracking

    In the midst of a broiling summer that is burning up crops and killing people, a lot of Americans, including most of the leaders of one of our two major political parties, do not think climate change is a problem. Like ostriches with their heads stuck in the tar sands, they want to go on fracking like there's no tomorrow.

  9. When scientists predict calamity, politicians plug their ears

    If life were a movie, the president of the United States (probably played by Will Smith) would be leaping into action to save humankind from the calamity that a new scientific report says is about to befall the Earth.&nbsp;

  10. Newton: L.A. needs this job generator

    If you've wondered why people complain about the difficulty of doing business in Los Angeles, consider the Southern California International Gateway project. BNSF is prepared to invest $500 million to build the gateway, a rail loading yard that would stimulate trade and produce jobs. And yet, for more than seven years, the project has bumped along without being either approved or rejected.

  11. Sen. Barbara Boxer seeks climate-change action from summit

    Greenspace
    Senator Barbara Boxer stepped up today to deliver an appeal for action at the mostly lackluster UN Climate Change Conference, which wraps up this week in Durban, South Africa. Her speech was delivered to an almost-empty Senate TV/Radio gallery, which is...

  12. NPR reports Kyoto Protocol in trouble in Durban

    Greenspace
    News coverage of the UN climate talks in Durban has been minimal, at best, and that’s clearly because – just like in Copenhagen last year – there has been almost no mention of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which was put in place to set...
