Everything I have attempted in the forests communities health area is a response to the Sierra County Proclamation, which remains in effect. This blog is dedicate to the health of my own first forests communitties, of Loyalton and the trees, people, and other living things the other forests communities of the Northern Sierra.
The Sierra County Proclamation was a strong implementation of a suggestion which I had made, supported by several other Friends, to the Sierra County Supervisors in November 2013. We argued then that any real response by the State would necessarily involve a return to service of the then-idle Loyalton Cogen, and that the then-proclaimed Drought Emergency was a useful handle for this essential step.
One Supervisor warned, at the time, that Sierra County would be scorned as the Little Boy Who Cried Wolf. In retrospect, reference to The Mouse That Roared seems better.
A Truckee expert on forest-biomass cogeneration stated, when declining to join our program, "we'll know you've got your revolution launched when we see steam above the stack at Loyalton."
This photo is dedicated to those who choose not to be part of the solution.
