This is a story about a boy named Jack. Jack lived up in the mountains and loved a river. Jack grew up to be one of the most famous aquatic scientists in the world. Jack's country did some damage to the river he loved but it also had the right and power to make the river healthier. The government asked Jack and some other scientists to come up with a plan to better manage the river. They did. The government liked the plan and was going to use it. Then a new president was elected. He told Jack to go to hell. Now Jack is a mad, extremely famous aquatic scientist, watching the river he loves die. And he's not being quiet about it.
In an email he sent to our restoration working group, Dr. Jack Stanford said, "Sometimes science is not enough." Just as with the Iraq war and the economy, the Bush administration's environmental policy ignores the truth in favor of its a priori agenda. They must be stopped, for the sake of the whole world, and the Gunnison River.

South Carolina may be boring in lots of other ways, but it is home to more species of carnivorous plant than anywhere else on earth.
