Global warming ethics, big-box woes in Silverthorne & Oktoberfest coverage ...

SUMMIT COUNTY —Our story about a new book on the moral dimensions of environmental issues quickly jumped to the top of the list Saturday and stayed through Sunday evening. The book, edited by a well-known Oregon State University philosophy professor, is a collection of essays highlighting the moral obligations associated with global warming.

Other popular stories included coverage of the coming showdown over a plan to build another big-box retail outlet in Summit County, a photoblog from the Frisco Oktoberfest and coverage of a recent federal report that identified a new ocean dead zone off the coast of Oregon and Washington.
