government agencies when dealing with the issue of private ranching on our
public lands..............more
Who I'd like to meet:
About RangeNet's Friends: It is our hope that the network of
RangeNet's friends will come to reflect the truth in Friedman's
"The World is Flat" by representing a broad spectrum of cultures
and interests. Flat or round, we only have one Earth - and it needs a bit of TLC
(tender loving care) from all of us if we and our descendants are to continue to
survive, prosper, and flourish!
Twenty-four of RangeNet's TOP FRIENDS are featured below. Western Watersheds Project, our parent affiliate, is a permanent TOP FRIEND. The other 23 TOP FRIENDS are randomly selected from among all of RangeNet's friends. Newly selected TOP FRIENDS start on the top row of the list, and rotate to the bottom of the list and then out of the list in a few days.

If you have walked in the heart of the Greenwood and have bathed in the light of its living force remember what you have felt; and whenever you pass a tree whether it stands alone in a wilderness of human making or in the depth of woodland, give a moment of your time to listen to its voice. For in many parts of the land the trees are dying only the hearts that know something of the true wisdom can save them. (Anon)
Time to welcome in the Summer, health and happiness.
Si usted ha paseado por el centro del bosque verde y se ha bañado en la luz de su fuerza viva recuerde lo que usted ha sentido; y siempre que usted pase al lado de un árbol si está parado solamente en un yermo de fabricación humana o en la profundidad del bosque, dé un momento de su tiempo para escuchar su voz. Porque en muchas partes de la tierra los árboles se están muriendo solamente los corazones que tengan algo de la sabiduría verdadera pueden salvarlos. (Anón)
