Biden admin wants to give climate resilient wolverines ESA protections
December 19th, 2023

“Basing this determination on climate modeling and projections that have been consistently inaccurate over decades does not meet the standard of “likely” or even probable at this stage. The North American population of wolverines shares genetic roots with the first wolverines that crossed the Bering Strait— wolverines have demonstrated remarkable resilience, surviving and adapting to various climate fluctuations, including the ice age and other periods of extreme climate change. This longstanding presence in North America underscores the wolverine’s ability to endure and adapt. It is wrong to base an ESA determination on unreliable climate predictions for any species, but especially for one that has proven to be so climate resilient.” — Letter from Senator Steve Daines & Rep. Zinke and Rosendale

In Episode 399 of District of Conservation, Gabriella discusses her recent ALEC Summit speech on natural asset companies, fishing in Arizona’s Salt River, previews CSF NASC podcast interviews, and discusses the USFWS’s proposed rule to list the Lower-48 wolverine on the Endangered Species Act with threatened protections on climate change, not population, grounds. Tune in to learn more.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

With regard to "natural asset companies":  Is anyone aware of this proposed rule by the SEC?! They are flying under the radar while trying to sell off federal lands, water and even air to so-called “Natural Asset Companies” (NACs) on the condition that they would preclude virtually any productive use of such resources. Private land owners may also be impacted.

The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.

Got a thought.....   Let's round up about a 100 wolverines,  trap them in the White House, and then watch the fun......
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
