Stream monitoring at Wequiock Nature Center last Sunday had an unexpected but interesting glitch with a bird banding group. Their nets for snagging birds had us finding an alternative area for monitoring but we gladly obliged. Environmentalist/wildlife specialists working ❤️ together.

The U.S. Forest Service isn’t managing forests anymore. It’s running a timber operation and poisoning everything else to do it.

A yearlong investigation by Mother Jones found that the Forest Service and private logging companies are systematically spraying thousands of acres of national forest with glyphosate (Roundup) to kill off native shrubs and wildflowers that compete with commercially valuable trees like Douglas firs and sugar pines.

After wildfires, forests naturally rebound with diverse vegetation and wildlife. What’s replacing that recovery is rows of industrial saplings surrounded by silence. No insects, birds, or flowers. It’s just dead zones.

Glyphosate application in California’s forests has quintupled over the last two decades in one year 266,000 pounds were sprayed a record. The World Health Organization classifies glyphosate as a carcinogen. The Forest Service is using it at industrial scale, on public land, to benefit private timber interests.

This is what “multiple use management” looks like when timber wins every time. Ecological health, wildlife habitat, native plant communities all of it gets written off as competition.

Legislators blocking funding should be called out and voted out.

Legislators blocking funding should be called out and voted out.

The state’s popular land stewardship program runs out of funding June 30. Some worry more Wisconsin natural areas will be bulldozed.

Well, image that.

Well, image that.

More than 80 groups are pressing the heads of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Health and Human Services for emergency action to protect drinking water from nitrate contamination.
