The energy industry - and the politicians who play
ball with them - are trying to plant drill rigs in
some of the best remaining natural spots. Michigan's
Mason Tract is one of the latest sites for this
shameful short-term thinking. ANWR just had a close
call - and they'll be back.
On Tuesday November 15 in Ann Arbor, we'll learn about
the assault on New Mexico's Otero Mesa. It's one of
the Lower 48's most spectacular -- and imperiled --
wilderness areas. Nathan Small from the New Mexico
Wilderness Alliance will present "Lands of
Enchantment: Protecting the Grasslands of Otero Mesa
and Wilderness in New Mexico."
Newcomers are welcome to this free, family-friendly
event, which begins at 7:30 pm at the beautiful
Matthaei Botanical Gardens (directions below).
