The Society of Environmental Engineers would like to invite you to see a presentation from the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance at their next General Body Meeting on Tuesday November 1st at 6:30pm in NEB 386.
Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, SUWA for short is doing stupendously good work in assuring the protection of large swaths of public Utah lands, and going about it with great political and legal savvy. SUWA has won many (but also lost some) environmental battles over land use, pollution, gas and oil development, among other things by striving for compromises with the BLM, County Commissions and local ranching and tourism interests. I believe they present an example to many other environmental organizations how to be successful.
As part of their PR, if you wish, SUWA has a "traveling road show" with an explanation of their mission, and spectacular pictures and videos of the Southern Utah landscape. Their current Grass Roots Organizer, Jackie Feinberg, will visit Gainesville to present this show to the Suwannee-St John Sierra Club Group on Thursday November 3, 7:30p. She asked me about the possibility to meet with (in her words) "environmentally minded students."
Please come out and enjoy this great opportunity. Refreshments will be served!
