CONVENTION Society of American Foresters 2012 in Spokane, Washington
The clouds are misting and the leaves are turning. I'm currently in Spokane, sitting in on lectures, panels, and presentations around the topic of forests. This year's theme is RESILIENCE. Today, I can say that I'm proud to be a member of the Society of American Foresters because I agree that bottom line - diversity, complexity, and evolution, in the realms of both ecosystem management as well as societal change, are values that are totally necessary in obtaining resilience as we face future uncertainties (i.e. economic hardship, climate change, political revolution).
The Convention is addressing issues greater than trees; they are working in context - within economic, social, and ecological systems, evolution, revolution. Go, foresters.
