On Wednesday, the middle school gym transformed into a science lab, complete with miniature flying drones, homemade robots, dinosaur bones and screaming quarters. These science experiments and demonstrations – aka ‘STEMonstrations’ – kicked off the Moab Festival of Science. And, activists from the Ute Mountain Ute tribe in White Mesa are leading a rally and spiritual walk this weekend. Plus, Arizona’s Gila River Indian Community announced plans to conserve a significant amount of its water supplies and the Interior Department will fund ecosystem conservation and pollution clean-up work.
