Los Alamos High School
Class of 2025
Our local EcoClub is pushing for real change in Los Alamos. We are asking Los Alamos County and Los Alamos Public Schools to electrify our school buildings and our school bus fleet. Please show your support by signing this form (Electrification) and emailing your school board member and county councilors.
Public schools are one of the largest consumers of energy in the country (K-12 Climate Action). They need lighting, heating, cooling, buses, and more. Many of our school buildings are heated by burning fossil fuels. This releases greenhouse Read More

Whenever I visit New York City, I have to see a Broadway show, usually several. I’m a consummate theatregoer and love both musicals and plays and will attend performances wherever and whenever I can. But Broadway’s special and there’s nothing more exciting than being amid its bright lights. I’m always giddy with anticipation sitting in the audience waiting for the curtain to rise, then being treated Read More
Weekly Fishing Report: Jan. 2, 2024
By GEORGE MORSE

Los Alamos Daily Post
There was very little stocking of rainbow trout this past week. The only ice-fishing reports are coming in from Hopewell Lake between Tres Piedras and Tierra Amarilla.
This high-elevation lake is accessible by hiking in from the highway or by snowmobile. Fishing should be good for stocked rainbow trout and wild brook trout.
Eagle Nest Lake should open to ice fishing by next week and at Fenton Lake a week after that. The best fishing now is on the larger rivers as the smaller streams are icing up. Always be sure to check road conditions and ice Read More

When New Mexico became a state in 1912, the first legislative session was 90 days long because legislators had a lot to do in forming the new state. After that, sessions, held after every general election, were 60 days until 1940, when a constitutional amendment divided it into two 30-day terms, with a 30-day recess between terms.
In 1946 a second amendment did away with the recess, and sessions returned to 60 days.
In 1964 a third amendment set the lengths we have today – 60-day sessions in even-numbered years and 30 days in odd-numbered Read More

This time of year provides an opportunity to think about the year just passed. We do this in diverse ways. Reflecting on lives lost, major events, best movies, or what impacted us on a personal level.
I tried something new this year. I thought about women who were authentic and inspirational. The more I read, the more I was uplifted. Around the world, in the country, and closer to home, women inspired us. Here are a few of my favorites.
First Lady Rosalynn Carter. At her memorial, family and friends provided a glimpse into her life of service Read More
Op-Ed: Electric Vehicles Not Quite The Panacea…
By DOUG REILLY
Los Alamos
We hear much these days about electric vehicles, EVs, locally, nationally, and internationally. Various countries and governments are issuing rules to switch to EVs quickly. Our governor has ruled state vehicles will be electric by 2035. The Los Alamos Daily Post has printed numerous articles on the subject, both pro and con. Many people and organizations claim EVs are pollution free and a big step in meeting climate change.
The US Energy Information Agency says at least 63% of our electricity comes from fossil fuels. The International Energy Agency says it’s Read More
