Senate backs compromise Tongass logging limits in Alaska
The Senate voted 99 to 0 for a compromise to curb logging on about 679000 acres of Tongass National Forest while authorizing limited activity and altering pulp mill contracts. The measure aims to protect jobs and address environmental concerns, with a House version seeking tougher protections and wilderness designation totaling 1800000 acres. Environmentalists and timber interests await conference to resolve differences. Senator Ted Stevens notes Alaska’s remote stance amid outside pressure.

Global warm spell noted by NASA scientist in 1990
NASA scientist Dr James Hansen says 1990 had the warmest March on record, part of a broader unusually warm spring across the Northern Hemisphere and southern regions. He links this to a long-term warming trend while a UN panel warns of a potential 5 F rise by century's end unless emissions decline. Thatcher pledges emissions stabilization. Cherry blossoms in New York and Tokyo set records for early bloom.
