A gumbo of fly-fishing, conservation, politics and days afield, for what it is worth....
Each week, I have the pleasure of joining Mountain Journal founder Todd Wilkinson in our “The Week That Is,” column where we discuss topical events relating to the nation’s capital city and the public land West. On Monday’s you can read the previous week’s column here.
In this edition we talk Biden’s climate plan, Cheney’s censure and dismissing science unless it serves one’s own political agenda.
The term “30×30” is rocketing around the conservation community. The goal is to protect 30 percent of the land and water in the U.S. by 2030. Clearly an ambitious goal. In this piece I wrote for the Marine Fish Conservation Network, I look at how the Biden administration’s climate change executive order handled it.
There are not enough words to express how happy this makes me. Bravo to President-elect Biden for the historic and long overdue appointment.
