"The great global land grab. AKA carbon markets." That's how a group of former Pacific presidents and prime ministers, the Pacific Elders' Voice, described carbon offsetting back in 2023. It's a good description to keep in mind as Australia reviews our flagship climate policy, reassuringly called the Safeguard Mechanism, which allows our 200-plus biggest industrial polluters to offset as much of their pollution as they like.

(The Center Square) – The San Diego City Council's Rules Committee has unanimously passed an ordinance to permanently keep parking free for city residents at local beaches and Mission Bay. But out-of-town visitors would have to pay. In passing the measure, committee members stripped out a proposed 10-year expiration clause to make the protections permanent - but only for residents. “The next step in the process is for the ordinance to go before the full City Council for approval, which we anticipate to happen this fall,” said Courtney Zuñiga-Pittam, director of communications for San Diego District 7 Councilmember Raul Campillo, in an email to The Center Square. The city of San Diego does not charge money for city-owned beach and Mission Bay parking lots. The proposal is intended to ensure they remain free for San Diegans while adding a charge for out-of-town visitors. The city council has not determined what the fee would be. The Center Square asked a lawyer if city's plan for charging visitors is legal. Donna Matias, senior attorney at Pacific Legal Foundation, said the city certainly has authority to regulate parking, but that authority is not unlimited. “Parking fees generally need to bear a reasonable relationship to the cost of providing and administering the service, rather than simply becoming a way to raise general revenue, and if the city imposes penalties for parking violations, those fines can raise a separate constitutional question if they are grossly disproportionate to the underlying offense,” Matias told The Center Square in an email. “So, the issue isn’t simply whether San Diego can charge for beach parking — it’s how it structures those charges and penalties, how they were passed, and how the revenue will be used.” The policy push comes after a controversial paid parking rollout in January for Balboa Park, where several museums are located. That initiative coincided with a one-third drop in museum attendance, prompting local leaders to phase out the fees by the end of 2026. Mission Bay, where Sea World is located, has a city-estimated 15 million visitors per year. Citywide coastal beaches draw 20 million to 35 million visits annually. San Diego Tourism Statistics provided by Road Genius say San Diego attracts 30 million to 32.5 million out-of-town visitors annually. Meanwhile, 85% of non-resident tourists cite visiting the beaches or water recreation as a primary activity during their trip.

(The Center Square) – Twenty-five years after the terrorist attacks on the Pentagon, the Twin Towers and in rural Pennsylvania, Arlington is preparing to bring together more than 200 first responders as the county looks back at a response that quickly grew across Northern Virginia and continues to shape emergency preparedness today. Many of the first responders expected at Arlington’s Sept. 11 ceremony were part of the response in 2001, when American Airlines Flight 77 struck the Pentagon. “September 11, 2001, changed Arlington County and the Arlington County Fire Department forever,” the department told The Center Square in a statement. “Twenty-five years later, we continue to remember the 184 people who lost their lives at the Pentagon, the nearly 3,000 victims of the attacks, and the families, friends and communities forever changed by that day.” A total of 184 people were killed at the Pentagon and aboard Flight 77, while 2,996 people, including the terrorists, were killed overall in the attacks that day. Arlington firefighters, police officers and other public safety personnel responded within minutes of the attack. What began as a rescue operation developed into extended firefighting, search and recovery efforts and a regional emergency response involving agencies from across Northern Virginia and the Washington D.C. area. The Fire Department said Arlington personnel worked alongside the Arlington County Police Department, Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, Fort Myer, Alexandria, Fairfax County, the District of Columbia and numerous other agencies. “The response demonstrated the importance of relationships, training, unified command and regional cooperation,” the department told The Center Square. “Those partnerships allowed us to work together during an unprecedented event, despite the tremendous uncertainty and challenges at the scene.” Arlington’s response was later recognized nationally as a model for managing a large-scale emergency, according to the department. Those lessons did not end with the response at the Pentagon. “The lessons learned from that day have influenced how we train, prepare, communicate and respond to major incidents,” the department said. “We are better prepared today because of the experiences and sacrifices of those who came before us.” The department also pointed to the lasting toll on those who responded. “The consequences of the work performed at the Pentagon did not end when the fire was extinguished or the recovery operation concluded,” the department said. “Many first responders have faced serious health consequences in the years since, reminding us that the impact of Sept. 11 continues to be felt a quarter-century later.” U.S. Sen. Barbara Favola, D-Arlington, who served on the Arlington County Board at the time of the attacks, said the response also extended into the surrounding community. Favola told The Center Square there was an outpouring of residents volunteering to help first responders with first aid, warm food, errands and other needs. She said Arlington residents took pride in the firefighters who quickly arrived at the Pentagon and recalled two images that remained especially significant to her: the placement of an American flag on the damaged Pentagon and the community coming together afterward. Del. Patrick Hope, D-Arlington, said the anniversary also comes as a generation of Americans has grown up without a living memory of the attacks. “The attack on the Pentagon happened right here on Virginia soil, and as we approach 25 years, an entire generation of Americans has grown up with no living memory of Sept. 11th,” Hope told The Center Square. Hope pointed to the planned Pentagon Memorial Visitor Education Center as one way that history will be carried forward. Virginia’s current budget provides $1 million to Arlington County to support construction of the center, which is planned near the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial. Arlington’s 25th anniversary ceremony is scheduled for 11 a.m. Friday, Sept. 11, at Fire Station 5. More than 200 first responders are expected, including many who responded to the Pentagon. Retired Arlington Deputy County Manager Jim Schwartz, who served as incident commander during the Pentagon response, is scheduled to participate along with Arlington Fire Chief David Povlitz, Police Chief Andy Penn and elected officials. The ceremony will include remarks, a wreath laying and a rose-laying ceremony at a steel beam from the World Trade Center displayed outside the station. For Arlington firefighters, the anniversary is both remembrance and preparation for what comes next. “We will never forget September 11, 2001,” the department told The Center Square, “and we will continue to carry its lessons forward for the generations of firefighters and first responders who follow.”

(The Center Square) – A Republican state lawmaker and the governor took a photo with a constituent at the DuQuoin State Fair after its opening, which was used to allegedly create an AI-generated photo of the two officials that sparked threatening comments about the lawmaker. State Rep. Dave Severin, R-Benton, said he connected with a constituent of his, Dan “Curley” Summers, who helps feed homeless residents in Benton, while at the downstate fair Aug. 28. “I waved Dan to come up on the stage there and talk to the governor and so we introduced the two of them, and Dan shares a little bit of his story and Dan says, ‘Governor, is there any way I can get a picture with you and Rep. Severin?’ And so we agreed to that picture,” Severin said. The photo, however, was allegedly manipulated using AI after being posted online, changed to depict Severin and Pritzker to appear friendly. “That picture was taken on Friday in front of the grandstands. Then someone took that picture and doctored it up with his AI and put the governor's arm around me, made both of us doing thumbs up, and so that picture is 100% bogus, not factual at all,” Severin said. The original images show part of a marquee that was hidden behind Pritzker’s head in the first image had been replaced by illegible, letter-like symbols in place of what is normally a logo for the fair. The Center Square found the doctored image to have initially been posted on Facebook and other platforms. “We have concerns literally in every corner of this state,” Severin said of the post. “I mean, every aspect, education, businesses, taxpayers, homeowners. I could go the full gamut. There are so many concerns, but what are we doing instead of addressing those things? We're pointing fingers at people and making accusations that are inaccurate and just causing havoc.” The post had more than 500 comments, many of which included threats and hateful sentiment against Severin, believing the caption that claimed Severin was endorsing Pritzker’s third gubernatorial run. Public sentiment in the comments of Severin’s post addressing the false image largely supported him, with many of the nearly 200 comments expressing they wouldn’t see an issue with the second image if it were real. The lawmaker denied that he endorsed or would endorse Pritzker when asked. “Absolutely not. I endorse Darren Bailey 1,000%,” Severin said. The J.B. Pritzker gubernatorial campaign didn’t respond to a request for comment prior to publication, but Pritzker previously shared his thoughts on the use of AI image generation for political purposes in June. “It's being used more and more and frankly it's deteriorating the political environment,” Pritzker said. “I think that at a minimum we should be watermarking any ad whether it's online or on television and it should say, this is produced by AI or something like that. So people know this isn't real.”
