Hawaii urges insurers to sue oil industry for climate damages
Hawaii lawmakers are encouraging insurance companies to sue the oil and gas industry for climate damages, even as the Trump administration seeks to block states from enacting climate policy. The first-of-its-kind state resolution — which supporters hope can be replicated elsewhere — calls on insurers to pursue claims against polluters who 'knowingly engaged in misleading and deceptive practices' regarding the connection between their products and climate change. Hawaii state Sen. Chris Lee (D), who sponsored the resolution, said he hopes it will help transfer some climate costs from ratepayers to companies that profited as they contributed to global warming. Advertisement 'We're trying to get climate effects addressed by those folks who are knowingly contributing to the problem, rather than the average family who is paying quite significantly,' he said.

Randolph County hosts ‘Hooked on Fishing Not on Drugs'
ELKINS, (WBOY) — Randolph County hosted its annual 'Hooked on Fishing Not on Drugs' event event on Saturday, offering an introduction to some outdoor activities for kids. The community came out to show kids what fun they can have without having to use substances with a special focus on the outdoors. Local wildlife and nature organizations came out to teach kids about the local environment and recreation opportunities. Class of 2025 graduates from Davis and Elkins College Event organizer Chris Lee explained why the event is so important. 'We live in this wonderful region where we have incredible recreation opportunities right outside of town,' Lee said. 'So, we wanna make sure that kids know about that and understand that that is a far better lifestyle than some of the more nefarious things that you can fall into.' In 2024, event organizers estimate that at least 600 kids came to the event. Lee also said that they plan to host this event each year indefinitely, and thanked the community for its support, including sponsors Reckart Logistics, Elkins Fordland, Randolph County Commission, and Elkins Parks and Recreation Commission.
