The present moment—2022-2023 or more broadly the last 4 to 6 years—marks an unprecedented period in American history. But not for the usually repeated reasons. None of the major factors is fundamentally novel. The challenge and the significance of our times lay in the conjunction of a number of elements. Together they make a unique challenge. This is not what journalists, politicians, or on-air “experts” regurgitate.

In my historian’s alternative construction, I do see our times as unprecedented but as a result of complicated, contradictory relationships. On one hand, almost none of the major elements factors are essentially new. On the other hand, the challenge to our understanding and strategic choices of responses lays in identifying and tracing the conjunction of a number of elements, larger and smaller, short- and long-term, that together uniquely challenge the American experiment and experience.

Thrive Companies is cleaning up brownfields and building mixed-used developments in Columbus like no other developer in the city’s history. They’ve completed more brownfield projects than any developer in Ohio, transforming Italian Village, Grandview, Franklinton, and Weinland Park. A massive Thrive development visible from 670 West, for instance, is emerging in Italian Village at the former stie of the Jeffrey Mining Company.

“Thrive Companies remediates forgotten land in Columbus, creating intentional communities from previously inactivated spaces,” states their website.

Thrive’s history in Columbus goes back decades and is currently led by third generation Mark and Eric Wagenbrenner. According to the news site Construction Today, “In the early 2000s, Mark and Eric Wagenbrenner sought to pursue their own path, and launched Wagenbrenner Development (renamed Thrive Companies). Together, the brothers decided to strategically tackle large, complex brownfield projects, and they quickly amassed a sizeable land position in the Columbus market.”

Our Green Grassroots Emergency Election Protection show begins with a deep dive into the curse of atomic power that continues to plague our planet and species.

We start with MARY BETH BRANGAN and JIM HEDDLE of the Environmental Options Network, who tell us about their spectacular new documentary “The San Onofre Syndrome,” due to be released in Los Angeles on Sunday, October 8, with virtual availability on October 15.

The film documents the magnificent citizens movement that against all odds shut units 2 & 3 at San Onofre, only to see the company and the regulators leave multiple tons of radioactive waste lying on the beach, within mere yards of the high tide line.
