Abstract: Partisan Environmental Groups: Beware of Wolves Dressed in Sheep’s Clothing. These wolves should be seen for what they really are: massive democratic political machines, disguised as environmental causes. These wolves disguised in sheep's clothing are deceiving the America people. When an individual gives their hard-earned money to one of these organizations, most expect it to be used for the environmental cause they support, not political campaigning. It seems that it is more important to these groups to turn their once laudable movement into a political machine misleading the American public regarding their purely politically partisan agenda under the guise...

Re: Many environmental groups are using their tax-exempt IRS registered 501(c)(3) charitable organizations as fraudulent front operations for the Democrats-Soros Shadow Party~FlA. Environmental groups are simply Democrat political machines with millions of dollars in contributions and expenditures each year for the purpose of raising more money to pursue their agenda. ~ Sen.

LINK TO KGO TO LISTEN LIVE ONLINE Dr. Bill Wattenburg, a man who has worked in the forest for 40 years and who has designed nuclear weapons at Lawrence Livermore, has a weekend show on KGO in San Francisco on Saturday and Sunday nights. Dr. Bill is an expert regarding protecting our forests. I expect him to be absolutely ripping the ecofrauds tonight and tomorrow. It will be worth your time to listen to him.

Now They Have Burned Los Alamos The “Let Our Forests Burn Policy” and So-Called “Controlled Burns” During Summertime are Criminal and Stupid. These Policies Must be Re-examined by the Scientists of This Nation October 12, 1999 (with edits on November 7, 2001) by Dr. Bill Wattenburg A portion of the article below was published in Science Magazine as a letter to the editor (‘The Burning of Yellowstone—Another Perspective,’ Science, 6 Nov 99, p1051). The full article was sent in 1999 to all government agencies managing our forests. They paid no attention. Unfortunately, we can now replace Yellowstone with Los Alamos....

Patrick Moore grew up in the rainforests of the Pacific Northwest — and holds a doctorate in ecology from the University of British Columbia. A self-described "radical environmental activist," he was one of the founders of Greenpeace, and one of the most radical eco-extremists. In recent years, however, former Greenpeace friends have branded Dr. Moore as an "eco-Judas" because he came to realize that the positions taken by Greenpeace and other groups in regard to forests and forestry were actually "anti-environmental." Since breaking with Greenpeace in 1986, Moore has spoken out tirelessly in defense of a more sensible appreciation of...

For education and discussion only. Not for commercial use. (Ottawa, Ontario Canada—) The Executive Director of the Canadian Aquaculture Industry Alliance (CAIA), David Rideout, has issued the following statement in response to the misinformation campaign launched against salmon farmers by environmental groups based in BC and elsewhere. Over the past several months, anti-salmon farming groups have launched a campaign to convince U.S. consumers to stop buying farmed salmon, suggesting instead that they 'go wild'—by purchasing wild-caught fish. Just recently, a B.C.-based group known as the Forest Action Network (FAN) jumped on the bandwagon of the noisy and disruptive voices that...

Common Sense Salmon Recovery argued in U.S. District Court that the National Marine Fisheries Service acted illegally when it refused to combine hatchery and wild salmon in determining whether the chinook should be protected under the Endangered Species Act.
