Update!

I'm looking forward to meeting with the people at Eco-Check in the next few weeks. I'm interested in learning more about their health indicators, how the samples are taken, etc.

I've also been talking with various fire experts about the work being done on fire models. There's a range of approaches that I find very interesting and will blog about in the next few weeks.

And pollinator decline. There are some great new studies out and I'm wading through them so I can bring the news to you. One interesting note is that there's a Boy Scout, Christopher Stowell, who is trying to bring back the Beekeeping Merit Badge. Right now he's got an online petition

Please take the time to help him out.
