a voice for the voiceless
This post is going to mostly be about disaster rescue, but since much of the disasters we are facing are linked to the Global Climate change that we are in the middle of, it makes sense to talk about that a bit as well. Katrina is a perfect example. Devastating, and expected to be just [...]
One of the sessions I went to at AR07 was “Relating to Urban Wildlife (dealing with rodents, feral cats, deer, squirrels, other wildlife)” with Share Bond, Peter Muller, and Kath Rogers speaking. I went to this one because it seemed such a practical topic, which I figured I’d be able to put into immediate use [...]
Seems like a no-brainer to me. We have to be environmentalists if we’re to be animal rights activists, otherwise what is the point? Humans are putting unfathomable amounts of pressure on animals as it is, encroaching on their habitat, pushing them into ever smaller and less sustainable areas, killing them when they compete with the [...]
I’m off to destroy a piece of the environment by flying across country this weekend, so I thought I’d write a review of a book on climate change to point out my sins. When I was in college taking a Geology class in ’95, scepticism still ruled the day when it came to discussing climate [...]

The fourth of July is not a holiday especially fraught with meaning to me. I would prefer there to be no fireworks, my friends are scattered around the world, and the family I’m close to is a hefty plane ride away, so I don’t have a big social event to mark the day with. I’m [...]
For what it is worth, here is the letter I just sent to the people Ron listed in the comments of my previous Kofa post. The address for Tom Harvey isn’t correct (or he no longer works there) so skip him until you get an update from me or Ron! I am writing to request [...]
If we were naive, we would think that a National Wildlife Refuge would provide a refuge for wildlife. This isn’t how it works. The Refuges end up acting like protected breeding ground for specific species, so that the hunters have a good hunting season down the road. When things, such as nature and natural predators, [...]
