Several more bloggers turned their attention to the Restore the Mendo campaign this week. California Fire News posted a piece on its site dedicated to providing insight on all things California wildfire.
Meanwhile, Firefighter Blog posted an article on its site that serves the brave men and women who are on the front lines of firefighting. The US Firefighters blog did the same with a post today. We're actively reaching out to firefighting audiences because the controlled burns play a vital role in reducing the threat of uncontrolled fires that can put fire crews in danger.
The coalition organizing the Restore the Mendo campaign is looking for more blogs that might be interested in what we're trying to do. We could use your help.
Though we are reaching out to the mainstream press and blogs that cover wildfire issues, we would like to find more community-oriented bloggers who live in the cities surrounding the Mendocino National Forest. Do you know any grassroots bloggers who write about any of the following communities?:
Anderson, Arcata, Bayside, Bella Vista, Blue Lake, Carlotta, Corning, Cottonwood, Eureka, Ferndale, Fortuna, Hydesville, Loleta, Redding, Rio Dell, Samoa, Scotia, Shasta Lake, Trinidad, and Weott.
Drop us a lineif you know of blogs, bloggers or other organizations that we should contact. The more people who find out how important controlled burns are in protecting communities and restoring forests, the better job we can do gaining support to increase their use.
I have read articles about layoffs in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, California, and Michigan today alone.
This will soon have an affect on fire equipment suppliers, manufacturers, and gear cleaning and repair companies
