In our latest episode, join Kyle and I (and some friends) as we whitewater raft down the class IV Middle Fork of the Salmon River in Idaho. As we float, we talk about the Wild and Scenic River Act and the important scenic, recreational, wildlife, fish, and cultural values the act protects. The historic Wild and Scenic River Act of 1968 protects some of the Nation’s most prized possessions: free flowing rivers that maintain biodiversity, provide for recreation, and safeguard historic and cultural values. Over 12,700 miles of rivers are protected in over 40 states. While that may seem like an abundance of river protections, it’s relatively little in comparison to all waters within the country; less than 0.25% of the Nation’s rivers have Wild and Scenic designation. There are folks all over the country working right now to designate more rivers as Wild and Scenic such as the: -Northwest California Wilderness, Recreation, and Working Forests Act -Rivers Democracy Act, Oregon -Wild Olympics Wilderness Act, Washington -Montana Headwaters Legacy Act -Greater Gila Wild and Scenic River Act, New Mexico https://lnkd.in/g9H54XRs

North America Known As Turtle Island To Indigenous Tribes Believe it or not, it is under your feet if you are living in North America and walking on Mother Earth. Many Native American tribes have this believe and have it in their folklore stories. One reason is the continent’s shape. The North American area has the shape of the turtle’s shell with a spiny ridge, the Rocky Mountains. Protruding from the shell are the tail of Mesoamerica; the limbs of Florida, Baja California, Alaska and Quebec-Labrador; and the head pointing toward the North Pole. The continent also has 13 regions that correspond to the 13 plates that are on turtle’s shell.

Something incredible -- a true story of hope -- happened this week: the Chilean government met with Kristine Tompkins, co-founder of Tompkins Conservation, and Fundación Rewilding Chile, to sign a protocol agreement to create a new national park on the southernmost time of the Earth called the Cape Froward National Park. This establishes the creation of a new protected area of over 300,000 acres, similar to the size of Grand Teton National Park in the United States. It is a rugged region and refuge for highly endangered species, a transitional ecosystem between land and sea, where diverse marine life, including Magellanic penguins, Peale’s dolphins, and Sei and humpback whales, feed off nutrients provided by the Antarctic, Pacific and Atlantic currents and coasts are lined with dense kelp forest. Subantarctic forest covers nearly half of the proposed donation area, which also features 24,710 acres of peatlands, an ecosystem considered critical to carbon storage and climate change mitigation. I am deeply honored to have been able to contribute my part to the funding of this new protected area. View this exquisite land in the video. https://lnkd.in/gbWhre48 And if you want to know how you can support similar global initiatives, check out my slightly nerdy but fun primer here https://lnkd.in/giT35ngt
