Now perhaps this particular page on the GCT site :

http://www.grandcanyontrust.org/native-america/energy_actions_shonto.php

..... was published after Ms. Jackson’s research for the article was complete.

But whether she was aware of the page or not, the effect of Inside Outside’s “Sustainable Empowerment” piece then becomes nothing less than a gruesome lie. Here we have the Trust’s Tony Skrelunas as quoted in the article:

“Communities here have said we want something that fits our values and our culture. There’s a whole movement of embracing community-based development. Every time you incorporate the cultural values, the teachings, the vision - all of this ends up being green. That always comes out.”

Yes, that always comes out in the greenwash. I guess it’s too bad for rural folks that “community-based development” is just a smokescreen for a permanent landscape-destroying wind-farm with transmission towers forever “marching like an enemy” over the people and places of the remote northwestern Navajo Nation.

Thank goodness the residents of Shonto are a lot smarter than Tony Skre-lunas and the Grand Canyon Trust. We know the white man’s world is in full collapse. Future generations needn’t live with the nightmare of hundreds of towering hulks of rusted metal monsters that only express our generation’s greed, arrogance and desperation.

Nope, it’s very simple: Just don’t trust the Trust.
