As we head into the final days of the campaign, the environment is a major issue that perhaps does not get as much attention as others. COVID-19, the economy, and health care all are polling more important for most voters. But for some, the environment remains top of mind. "The environment is like the basis of everything," Anna Rose Mohr-Almeida, an 18-year-old voter in Arizona, said. "If we keep relying on oil, we aren’t going to make a clean transition," Mohr-Almeida said. Other voters are watching environmental policy more closely. Not because they want more reform, but because they worry about regulations that are too drastic. "We like clean air, we like clean water," Alan Olson with the Montana Petroleum Association said. "We have got a tremendous economy in the United States, primarily due to cheap fuel," Olson said. "Environmental regulations have to be realistic," Olson added. BIDEN VS TRUMPOn nearly every policy, the two presidential candidates differ, but it is especially apparent when it comes to the environment. During his administration, President Donald Trump has reversed nearly 100 environmental regulations. Trump removed the United States from the Paris Agreement, which is meant to stop rising temperatures by cutting emissions. The president is however committed to planting trees and did sign the Great American Outdoors Act, which Democrats and Republicans both believe will help protect federal lands for generations. Joe Biden, meanwhile, would immediately have the United States rejoin the Paris Agreement. Biden is committed to spending trillions to hire millions to create a "green economy."Biden wants net-zero emissions by 2050. While Biden has called the Green New Deal a framework, he has said he would not ban fracking. 1777

Automakers are racing to develop driverless cars, putting increasingly complex technology on the road despite concerns from safety experts and the National Transportation Safety Board about a lack of regulations.Unlike rules for the design of a seatbelt or airbag, the federal guidelines for automated vehicle systems are voluntary. The U.S. Department of Transportation says keeping rules at a minimum will speed up the introduction of life-saving technology, a goal made all the more urgent as traffic deaths climbed again last year to 37,461, with 94 percent of those caused by human error.That lack of mandatory rules for self-driving cars has given automakers and technology companies the green light to police themselves, said Jackie Gillan, president of Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety. The group is calling for the government to issue mandatory safety standards for driverless cars.“Before we introduce this technology we need to have some assurance and accountability by the industry that this technology is not going to kill or injure consumers,” Gillan said.The National Transportation Safety Board makes recommendations after investigating major transportation incidents. The board recently called on DOT to issue new safety rules after its investigation of a May 2016 fatal crash of a Tesla Model S operating on autopilot near Williston, Fla. The Tesla slammed into a tractor-trailer, its cameras and automatic emergency braking system failing to spot the blank side of the truck against the white sky.It was the first known deadly wreck of a car driving with that level of automated sophistication. The NTSB said the driver relied too heavily on the car’s traffic-aware cruise control system and autosteering feature, but also blamed Tesla’s autopilot for allowing the driver to not interact with the car for prolonged periods of time.Investigators found the driver had his hands on the wheel for only 25 seconds during the 37 minutes the car was on autopilot. After the crash, Tesla updated its software that requires drivers touch the wheel every so often when the car is driving itself to ensure a human is paying attention to the road. Now if a driver repeatedly fails to touch the wheel, he or she will “strike out” and cause the car to slow down and stop in its lane with its hazard lights on, disabling autopilot for the remainder of the trip. 2378

As the counting of ballots continue, one trend is emerging: the final result will be close. A potential consequence of that will be a recount. Perhaps in one state or in multiple states. RECOUNT RULESEach state handles recounts differently. For example, in Arizona, an automatic recount is triggered if the margin between candidates is less than or equal to 0.1 percent of the votes cast. In Georgia, candidates can request recounts if the margin is no more than .5 percent of total votes cast.DO RECOUNTS CHANGE ANYTHINGAccording to FairVote.org, recounts rarely change races. Since 1980, there have been 5,778 statewide elections.There have only been 31 completed statewide recounts.Only three have been overturned because of a recount.Perhaps the most famous recount of all was in Florida in 2000.But the 2000 Florida Recount only shifted the final margins by 1,247 votes or 0.02%In a recount in Wisconsin in the 2016 Presidential race, the final margin only changed by 571 votes. "I believe recounts in themselves are not in favor of those who have lost a race unless it's a very close margin," Dr. Eric Claville, a political scientist with Norfolk State University said. 1183

Attorneys general from several states plan to jointly file new antitrust litigation against Facebook in the coming days, according to reports from CNBC and the Wall Street Journal.According to CNBC, as many as 40 states are expected to join New York in suing the social media giant. The report also says that the Federal Trade Commission could file a separate but related complaint in district court.While the specifics of the pending lawsuit are unclear, Facebook has been criticized for swallowing up competitors, like Instagram and WhatsApp for fairly reasonable prices.The pending lawsuit would mark the second significant piece of legislation filed against a Silicon Valley giant in recent months. In October, the Justice Department sued Alphabet, the parent company of Google, and alleged the company is a search engine monopoly. 843

As this active hurricane season continues. more coastal cities are changing how they build as a way to prevent against the effects of climate change.In Margate, New Jersey, a city of 6,000 people just south of Atlantic City, a -million beach replenishment project completed in 2017 created an eight-mile stretch of dunes along the beach to protect homes against storm surge from hurricanes and nor’easters.The project involved pumping 3.8 million cubic yards of sand from the ocean floor onto the beach. The sand was used to create a berm along the west side of the beach, closest to the homes, that could protect against storm surges of up to 15 feet while more sand was placed along the shoreline, extending the beach and moving the waves further away from properties.“I think the beach replenishment project is very important,” said Nee Jersey Department of Environmental Protection chief resiliency officer Dave Rosenblatt. “Without it, we would’ve expected to see a lot more damage from Sandy and frankly, normal nor’easters.”Superstorm Sandy in the fall of 2012 was the catalyst for the project. The storm’s worst damage was felt about 100 miles north of Margate where the boardwalk was ripped up and homes were left without power for days, and in some cases, weeks.“After Sandy, it was very easy to compare the areas that had beach replenishments and dunes to those that did not,” said Rosenblatt.But Margate is just an example of several coastal cities around the country that are doing things differently.“As the sea level rises, most people are more worried about what’s going to be underwater. That’s not as important as the flood plane is expanding,” said Galen Newman, associate professor of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning at Texas A&M. “I think there are many cities exploring options.”After Hurricane Harvey, Houston built more greenspace in its downtown area so water could better drain. On the Texas coast, near Galveston, engineers have been considering a dike to stop flooding. After Hurricane Ike in 2008, the area withstood billions in damages, and experts worry the next strong storm to target the area could cause catastrophic effects to the economy as the area is America's leading producer of petroleum.Furthermore, in parts of Florida, new building codes now mandate buildings withstand winds of up to 130 MPH,, a low-end Category 4 hurricane. A study by the Institute for Business and Home Safety found the change has worked as insurance claims have gone down in number and severity since the year 2000. 2556
