President Signs Wildfire Legislation: Sierra Club Statement

Laptop Battery It's Official: Bush Administration Puts Communities at Risk From Wildfires Statement of Carl Pope, Sierra Club Executive Director. President Bush signs into law today logging legislation that fails to adequately fund community wildfire protection measures, but will certainly succeed in propping up the timber industry.

Robert Cox, a former Sierra Club president who sits on the board with Watson, militant statements at the last national meeting.

Thinkpad Communities at risk from wildfires have been asking for help for years, and they will have to continue those requests this spring and for fire seasons to come. Answering their pleas with timber sales miles away will not help protect homes and lives. There is a better way, but it requires putting the safety of communities ahead of the interests of timber corporations.

The Sierra Club, having concluded that the legislation does not apply to the Plainfield site, filed a request for a declaratory judgment with the DEP.

Microsoft The common sense solution is to prioritize funds to thin brush and small trees around homes and communities. We need a plan that addresses problems faced in places like Summerhaven, Arizona, Southern California and other communities that have experienced great losses in recent fire seasons. Instead, the Bush Administration exploited the public's justified fear of fires to pass a bill that effectively removes citizen participation, interferes with the judicial system, increases commercial logging, leaves old-growth and roadless forests vulnerable, all while leaving communities at risk.

According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.

Laptop Computers Communities across the West are not getting the help they desperately need. It's not too late to fix this problem. If the Bush administration and Congress are serious about protecting homes and lives, they should appropriate sufficient funds and earmark them for work around communities.

He began his activist career 15 years ago, when he organized a petition drive at school that called for the dismissal of then Secretary of the Interior James Watt. He was only eight years old. At 13, he founded the Sierra Student Coalition, run adjunct to the Sierra Club that now boasts 30, 000 members. Today, he is the youngest president the Sierra Club has ever had.

Laptop Computer The Bush Administration's record on forest policies - from abandoning landmark wild forest protections to limiting the ways Americans can participate in protecting their National Forests - is dismal, and the "Healthy Forests Initiative" marks a low point.
