    Thank you Ryan and Andrew for opening up this new forum. I appreciate it very much.

    In return I’ll keep rants to CHAFF and only post factual material here that will help members in their efforts to do as much as they can/want to help our suffering environment.

    You’re welcome – Matthew King, one of our moderators, was the main driver behind this, so kudos go to him. But it’s good timing, as Andrew and I will start releasing podcast shorts that cover environmental news as well, after the first of the year.

    OOPS! I meant Matthew, not Andrew. And thanks Matt. You guys have your hearts in the right place.

    STICKY Suggestion:

    We need a sticky of environmental organizations.

    I suggest moderators list them alphabetically and with links.

    Perhaps 2 categories would be helpful: 1. NATIONAL & REGIONAL organizations 2. STATE organizations. Or maybe make it 3 categories.

    And some of them can be organizations primarily for hunters and fishermen like Trout Unlimited, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, etc. Those organizations have helped tremendously in the past decades to preserve habitat and that preservation benefits many other species than the main ones for which the organizations are named.

    I think this forum will be increasingly popular with BPL members – especially as more are directly affected by climate change. Gotta wait ’til late December to ski or ice fish? Your water being rationed more and more? Your home endangered by wildfire or hurricanes?

    Well activism is the best answer.
