LVM's Environmental Action Blog

The purpose of this blog is to convey the importance that life choices and daily decisions have on the environment. I will, as a member of the kayaking community, effectively convey the importance and immediacy of environmental issues written in the paddling vernacular.

forests



The health of our forests in the United States and all those around the world directly affect the health of our rivers and some would argue our general well being on this planet. Although some forestland has been and is being preserved, virgin and regrowing forests at home and abroad are still threatened by logging and other natural resource exploitation interests. These precious places need our vote, our interest, sometimes our money, and a change in our lifestyle. Recycling, reusing, and reducing our use of paper and other wood based products can help us preserve what we still have today.



This video from the forest council gives an interesting perspective.

Visit Forest Council to find out more information on how you can be active and supportive of preserving forests for the future.

Stay tuned for some ways and means of using recycled wood for a variety of purposes.
