Thank you for replying. My work with public lands began as I saw how money driven public land mangers were and how ineffective public comment was in the political processes. Believe me, I would love to bubble the forest with a web of protection and reverence.
My solution was to find a wild product, to help motivate public land managers not to develop public lands. This was the first step, and biggest step that I, as one woman could envision as possible. Protect 47 million acres of earth, from destructive land use, through creating an viable alternative. I apperciate that you shared your ideas, and I really encourage people to find their own path to a life's work on behalf of the planet. This one was the best I could envision as real. Input and feedback are very welcome. Penny
