Deadline for comments on proposed ESA changes extended to OCTOBER 15

In an earlier blog, I asked anyone who reads this to please lodge your comments with the US Fish & Wildlife Service about changes that are being proposed to the Endangered Species Act.

Here's the relevant paragraph from the earlier post. If you want to read the whole thing, it's just a few posts down if you're in the mood to scroll.

"Here is a link to the US Fish & Wildlife Service's website with the exact language changes being proposed downloadable in PDF or text format. It's an incredibly dry, nearly incomprehensible legalese read, so here's a link to the Washington Post article on the topic that explains things pretty well."

Please have a look here, on the NRDC's website, to file an online comment letter and let them know you oppose these changes and why. The NRDC will print out each online letter they receive and hand-deliver them to the USFWS.

Thanks again. I've been sampling all day today but I promise some fun pics in the morning, so please take a moment if you haven't already. Sorry to keep harping on this but it's simply too important to take a casual stance.
