Recommended Listen: "Timber Wars" Oregon Public Broadcasting

[Juliann Allison]

Good morning, 

  I encourage everyone who hasn't already done so to listen to "Timber Wars," an Oregon Public Broadcasting podcast that focuses on the old growth forests/spotted owl issue and relates it to current issues--excessive wildfires as well as the widing left-right political divide. Listen for former President Bill Clinton on "this isn't about loggers versus environmentalists...it's about change" full stop. Link: https://www.opb.org/show/timberwars/

Best wishes,

Juliann
