Editor's Notes
- #2 Presentation delivered Earth Day (April 22) 2009 at #ignitempls. For more info see http://www.ignitempls.org. I’m fortunate to have a job that gets me outside into the woods pretty often, and this slideshow is designed to share some of what I’ve learned in my time spent outside and with loggers, foresters, and landowners.
