ok, this is probably blog whoring of the worst kind but these blogs haven't gotten much exposure so I thought I'd give it a shot. I promise I won't do this again!
The environment is a pivotal reason why the Bush Administration needs to go in 2004. The outcome of bad environmental policies are felt most egregiously by grassroots conservation activists. Grassroots conservation activists have launched a pair of blogs oriented on the fight to protect and restore Pennsylvania's wild forests. We are looking to provide continuous coverage of crucial conservation issues in Pennsylvania and somewhat beyond. These are non-partisan blogs committed to these goals and we are always looking for additional contributors. We'd also like to know of any other conservation oriented blogs out there that we can link to.
The Hellbender Chronicles is a feature weblog of the Allegheny Defense Project and is committed to the protection and restoration of Pennsylvania's only national forest - the Allegheny. This blog features regular updates on commercial logging, road building, oil drilling, and Wilderness establishment efforts ongoing in the Allegheny National Forest. Includes limited coverage of western New York.
Pennsylvania Wildlands News is a feature weblog of the Pennsylvania Wildlands Recovery Project and is committed to being a comprehensive, no-B.S. news source on all topics relating to the health and recovery of wildlands and wildlife in PA.
Both of these blogs feature commentaries from seasoned front-lines grassroots conservation activists in Pennsylvania. Here is a list of recent entries from both. Feel free to critique and whichever.
