Post Footnotes for “Before WHO’s HiAP… A Closer Look at ICLEI-Local Gov’ts for Sustainability…” post, starting with “NYT Activists Fight Green Projects” [Published Nov. 22, 2017]
Ideally, this blog format should be upgraded to a more structured website with options besides Posts, Pages, and Sidebar Widgets (with more links and some accompanying text) so I may leave “supplemental” and more detailed texts or backup facts with clickable links to other parts of the website.
But until then, what I have now is either: Omit It, Post It, Page It, or (less space, less viable option), “Sidebar-it.” Or footnote it on the same post. If I knew how to insert a navigation link (as many websites do — for example, Wikipedia, or academic writings posted on-line often have this) TO a specific place lower in the page, and from there “Back” or “To Top” — I would. Presently, I don’t.
THIS POST IS: Post Footnotes for “Before WHO’s HiAP… A Closer Look at ICLEI-Local Gov’ts for Sustainability…” post, starting with “NYT Activists Fight Green Projects” (case-sensitive short-link ending “-7T1” started Nov. 2, 2017, published Nov. 22.)
For now, consider this post as although it’ll be published separately (and later) as its own post, as “Footnotes” to:
Before WHO’s HiAP there was UN’s Agenda 21; As Usual, Internationally-Networked Nonprofits such as ~ ICLEI-Local Governments for Sustainability USA, Inc.** ~ (1991ff, MA legal domicile; first HQ in Boston, then Berkeley, then Oakland, and lately Denver) Help Spread the Latest Version of the Global Gospel. (with case-sensitive short-link ending “-7N2,” post started 10/14/2017 as one of two spin-off posts from my “HiAP” one; being published ca. Nov. 1)
Footnotes, they may be interesting if long or detailed enough, but are still “footnotes” not headlines, and not designed for reading separately to, or before, reading the main points in the body of the text. So here, if you read what’s below before reading the post referenced above (its main body), you may find it intriguing, but incomplete. For example in the first section (commentary on a NYT article), the images are back on the main post. The paragraphs here would add too much vertical space between title and the first image, and so were moved to another place, as important as I consider the points made.
Visual Style: Each footnote is long — or it’d have been left in place on its parent post. A new Footnote will be distinguished by Title starting with the word ‘FOOTNOTE’ and separated from each other also by different background-colors. They are somewhat shorter than normal width to alert readers to the fact this is not attempting to be a normal post with a continuous narrative, but exists as a supplement to a normal one, written in continuous prose (although typically in different sections).
Perhaps I could make a continuous “Footnote page” separated by Post names (like “chapters” as in a book). Hmm. But for now, you have these “footnotes” for just a single post. I also added a “Post as Footnote” tag. Publishing this knocks of one of ten “in the pipeline.” Enjoy: it’s under 2,500 words!
