Environmentalists warn of intent to sue over snail species living near Nevada lithium mine_我的网站

一 |     8月26日讯 《体坛周报》记者马德兴撰文谈到青训话题，文章表示，真正的青训需要很多年，而互联网最擅长制造的却是“一个下午的天才”。

二 | 在采访过程中，清华附中马约翰体育特长班的办公室主任及竞赛主管陈广虽然没有多言，但提到了一点担忧，就是现在的年轻球员过早地进入到了公共舆论场。    RENO, Nev. -- In an ongoing legal battle with the Biden administration over a Nevada lithium mine, environmentalists are poised to return to court with a new approach accusing U.S. wildlife officials of dragging their feet on a year-old petition seeking endangered species status for a tiny snail that lives nearby. The Western Watersheds Project said in its formal notice of intent to sue that the government's failure to list the Kings River pyrg as a threatened or endangered species could push it to the brink of extinction.It says the only place the snail is known to exist is in 13 shallow springs near where Lithium Americas is building its Thacker Pass Mine near the Oregon line.President Joe Biden has made ramped-up domestic production of lithium a key part of his blueprint for a greener future. Worldwide demand for the critical element in the manufacture of electric vehicle batteries is projected to increase six-fold by 2030 compared with 2020.Past lawsuits filed by conservationists and tribes have taken aim — largely unsuccessfully — at the Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management, which they accused of cutting regulatory corners to expedite approval of the mine itself in 2021.The new approach targets the department's Fish and Wildlife Service, charged with ensuring protection of fish and wildlife habitat surrounding the mine site 200 miles (321 kilometers) northeast of Reno.Western Watersheds Project says groundwater pumping associated with the mine’s 370-foot-deep (113-meter) open pit will reduce or eliminate flows to the springs that support the snails.In the formal 90-day notice of intent to sue sent to Interior Secretary Deborah Haaland last month, they say her agency's failure to make a 12-month finding on the listing petition filed in September 2022 is a violation of the Endangered Species Act.“The Fish and Wildlife Service isn’t supposed to sit on its hands while species are in imminent danger of extinction, but the fact that it hasn’t met the deadlines on the pyrg raises questions about why they might be delaying,” Adam Bronstein, the project's Nevada director, said in a statement.“It would be absolutely unacceptable if the Biden Administration is waiting until it’s too late to save the species so as not to interrupt the construction of a lithium mine," he said.Interior Department spokeswoman Melissa Schwartz said in an email Thursday the department had no comment on the group's intent to sue.Western Watersheds Project said time is of the essence because the snails were imperiled even before any new mining was contemplated due to livestock grazing, round-building and, increasingly, the anticipated impacts of climate change.“The species has no regulatory protection whatsoever ... because it is not an endangered species, or even a Bureau of Land Management-listed Sensitive species, and has no state law protections," the notice said.Conservationists and tribal lawyers claimed a partial victory last year when U.S. District Judge Miranda Du concluded the bureau failed to fully comply with new interpretations of the 1872 Mining Law. But she stopped short of blocking the project, allowing construction to begin as the bureau shored up plans for disposal of waste rock.The opponents appealed, but the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Du's ruling in July.The tiny snail’s shell is less than 2 millimeters (0.08 inches) tall. By comparison, a U.S. nickel coin is 1.95 millimeters thick. They've managed to survive in isolated springs, which are remnants of extensive waterways that have covered what is now dry land only to recede many times over the last 2 million years, the listing petition said.The project says three of the springs are within a 1-mile (1.6-kilometer) buffer zone, the bureau established in its review of potential impacts of a 10-foot (3-meter) drawdown of the groundwater table, and the rest are less than 4 miles (4.8 kilometers) away."As drought frequency increases with climate change, the Kings River pyrg will be at high risk of extinction,” the letter to Haaland said. It notes that the Nevada Department of Wildlife considers the pyrg “extremely vulnerable to climate change.”Lithium Americas had no comment on the notice of intent to sue the Fish and Wildlife Service, spokesman Tim Crowley said. The company said when the listing petition was filed last year that it's done extensive work to design a project that avoids impacts to the springs.The Bureau of Land Management said earlier its environmental review of the project that it didn't detect any of the snails "within the direct footprint of the project or any area likely to be adversely affected by the project.”。或许是碍于目前的身份，陈广并没有就此话题展开。但是，他所提及的这一点却让记者深有同感。同样是采访青少年足球，十多年前与80后、85后、90后等青少年球员接触，与如今接触05后、06后甚至更小的青少年球员，记者的感受完全不同。如今的青少年球员所关注的、在意的东西与10多年前的小球员的关注点相比，已经发生了巨大甚至可以说是根本性的变化。现实社会中，短视频、社交媒体、比赛集锦、自媒体账号等等，可以让一个十四五岁的孩子在真正成为职业球员之前就拥有大量关注度，一段精彩的过人短视频可能会收获十几万的点赞；一场比赛可能制造一个“天才少年”；一支少年队也可能通过精心包装，变成一个具有巨大流量的IP。但是，这种变化某种程度上正在侵蚀着青少年球员培养过程中最需要的东西——专注。过去，教练、老师或家长会告诉孩子：“低头做人，脚踏实地做事。

四 | 记者曾亲历过这样的事情，而且不止一两次。在某国少队的训练场边，记者亲耳听到小球员小声告诉身边的队友：“马记者来看咱们训练了，在拍东西呢，赶紧好好表现。”乍一听，好像这没有什么，一切都很正常，而且球员们训练状态显得很兴奋、很不错。但实际上，球员们真正在意的并不是训练本身，而是关注自己的视频、形象；关心自己是否能出现在记者的镜头之中；关注别人怎么评论；关注曝光度等等。他们的视线早就不在每天最枯燥的技术改进上。

五 | 这其实就是全新时代下，青训工作中所需要面对的一个全新课题，即如何让球员们更专注。所以，当陈广主任提及自己的担心时，记者才感同身受。可以这么说，清华附中今天最需要的，并不是更多的“神话”。当校园球队已能够培养国字号球员时，最危险的反而可能是把“人才培养”重新变成“流量生产”，真正的青训需要很多年；而互联网最擅长制造的却是“一个下午的天才”。这也是记者在采访完陈广后深感另一个很值得关注与思考的东西。
