Supporters of AJR3, also known as the “Green Amendment,” want to protect Nevada’s water, air, and climate. Who could be against that?Before you ask — no, not me. I might have some deeply unpopular opinions on feral horses and high-speed trains, but even my reflexive contrarianism has its limits. I drink our water, breathe our air, and live in our climate, too. Given a choice between having clean water, air and so on versus not, well, it’s not a hard choice. Who wouldn’t prefer to live in a healthy environment?Despite the comparative abundance of open space in our state, that’s not a theoretical question. Nevada’s legislators aren’t trying to gild and protect a largely pristine and untouched lily — on the contrary, as one of The Nevada Independent’s recent fact briefs points out, Nevada is one of the most polluted states in the country. Nearly 200,000 Nevadans drink from largely untested and untreated domestic wells, many of which are heavily contaminated with arsenic and other heavy metals — and that’s just what nature itself adds to our groundwater. On top of that, Nevadans have also added hydrocarbons and other pollutants to some of our groundwater supplies — including the groundwater supply for Owyhee Combined School on the Duck Valley Shoshone-Paiute Indian reservation, inadvertently poisoning generations of rural schoolchildren with cancer-causing chemicals.There’s a reason the primary sponsor of the “Green Amendment” is Assemblywoman Sarah Peters (D-Reno) — she’s an environmental engineer who’s spent her career cleaning up Nevada’s environment. She is, to borrow and paraphrase a well-worn writing maxim, legislating what she knows. Her desire and ability to do so is a rare credit to our part-time citizen Legislature, which far more often than not seats well-heeled lawyers, ranchers and real estate agents instead.Unfortunately, policy outcomes don’t care about our intentions. It’s not enough to mean well, even if you’re a subject matter expert.
