Podcasts about Land management

Mark catches up with another of the finalists in BBC Scotland's Make a Difference Award environmental category. Midlothian Wildflowers started as a small group of people from the Bonnyrigg and Rosewell community carrying out some guerilla gardening. Julia Pennycuik from the group tells Mark how it grew from there and why it's been nominated for the award.This weekend Grantown on Spey in the Cairngorm National Park becomes Greentown on Spey as an environmental awareness festival is held in the town. Rachel spends some time with one of the groups involved, Wild Tribe Highlands who take children on outdoor adventures in the hope they can build a life-long connection with nature.Culbin Forest on the Moray Firth was one of the locations used recently in Christopher Nolan's epic film adaptation of The Odyssey. Phil Sime went along to find out that it's not just a dramatic film location, but also an important home to rare lichens and plants.The recent wildfires in the Cairngorms had a huge impact on the people living in the Glenmore area with initial evacuations and many businesses closed for the duration. The fires also obviously had a huge impact on the flora and fauna, and it will take some time for parts of it to recover. Earlier this week Mark went to meet Dr Sarah Henshall, Head of Conservation with the Cairngorms National Park to hear about how things look now.Balgone Estate in East Lothian grows a rather striking crop at this time of year, sunflowers. But as Rachel hears from general manager Alex Humphreys, they can be quite tricky to get right in our Scottish climate.We chat live to Duncan Orr-Ewing, Head of Species and Land Management with RSPB Scotland about a recent project to satellite tag Sea Eagles in Western Scotland to investigate how the eagles interact with livestock.Our Scotland Outdoors podcast this week features Mark's trip inside the Tay Road Bridge as it marks its 60th anniversary. We hear an excerpt of him exploring the engineering of the impressive structure.And Rachel meets up with a group of Aberdeen surfers. Wavy Quines is a female only surfing group who tell Rachel about how they got started and try to show her the art of surfing on Aberdeen beach!

Today's Headlines: It was quite a weekend! Trump turned DC streets into a 1.7-mile IndyCar speedway for another Freedom 250 event, took a ceremonial lap in the presidential limo with Melania — not Natalie — while his Qatari plane did a flyover. In other shady news, Trump announced he's importing up to 300,000 metric tons of "product for ground beef" without specifying what the product is, where it's from, or how it'll be discounted 25% — which landed one day after a New York Times investigation revealed the Bureau of Land Management has been selling wild horses to buyers who ship them to slaughter plants through a legal loophole, with sales more than doubling in 2025. On the tariff beat, The trade war with Canada is officially back on with 50% tariffs on $20 billion in goods, Canadian PM Mark Carney promising to match them dollar for dollar starting September 8th, and Carney publicly stating that Trump is demanding Canada change its French language and Quebec culture as conditions for reversing tariffs. We finally have a nominee to lead the FDA, Trump nominated Dr. Heidi Overton and she has an MD and a PhD, which is more than expected. She has also called for conservatives to "infiltrate" public health institutions though, which is less reassuring given that 2026 has already seen four times the average number of foodborne illness cases. The Department of Education took the first steps to strip the American Bar Association of its law school accreditation authority, which would prevent graduates of non-accredited schools from sitting the bar exam in most states — a creative way to destabilize the entire legal profession. Back to shady, Jared Kushner quietly met with Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries to discuss working together on housing and cost of living, which suggests the White House privately expects Democrats to win the House majority in November. And finally, a wildfire near Reno has burned over 13,000 acres with zero containment, putting 42,000 people under evacuation orders including two hospitals, with 40 additional fires burning across Nevada simultaneously.

Photo: Cars destroyed in the Mukluk Fire on August 18, 2026. (Courtesy Pyotr Dobrotvorsky) Residents of the eastern Interior community of Tok, Alaska are being ordered to evacuate their homes after a wildfire broke out Monday morning. What officials are calling the Mukluk Fire was reported shortly before noon in the backyard of a residence on the Alaska Highway, near milepost 1316, as the Alaska Desk’s Shelby Herbert from KUAC reports. As of Monday evening, it had grown to over 1,500 acres and was spreading to the east and northeast. Sam Harrel, a spokesperson for the Alaska Division of Forestry and Fire Protection said hot, dry, and windy weather has made the situation dangerous. He said in a brief phone interview that state troopers and firefighters are going door-to-door in the area north of the Alaska Highway asking people to leave. Level 3 ‘Go’ evacuations — urging residents to leave immediately — were underway from Sundog Trail to Midnight Sun Drive. Residents in that area were being asked to evacuate to the local Mushers Hall and the Tok School. Pets are being accepted in both locations. Officials have also cautioned people in the area to avoid downed power lines. Harrell also said a helicopter initial attack team from Fairbanks has been dispatched to the fire, as well as fire engines from as far away as Mat-Su and Kenai. He was not able to confirm, if — or how many — structures have burned. Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R-AK) issued a disaster declaration Tuesday, activating the state's public and individual assistance program. Fur seals on St. Paul Island, Alaska. (Photo: Allen Shimada / NOAA NMFS/OST/AMD) Dogs have long been banned on the Pribilof Islands in Alaska, under a rule imposed by the federal government to protect the world’s largest concentration of northern fur seals, but that is set to change. The Alaska Beacon reports that under a new interim rule enacted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), dogs may be brought to the islands, but only for the specific purpose of hunting for rats. Dogs allowed on St. Paul Island or any other part of the archipelago must be trained and certified to detect and catch rats, and their stays are limited to 180 days. The Pribilofs have managed to stay rat-free, even as other Alaska islands and coastal areas have become infested with rodents. The new NOAA rule is intended to keep it that way. Rats are not native to any part of Alaska, but have been introduced by ships over time. They have infested several coastal regions and become one of the most destructive invasive species in the state. There have been instances of rat sighting on St. Paul over the years, but most were caught immediately in traps set up at the harbor. One rat escaped that gauntlet in 2018 and was found dead 10 months later. The new rule went into effect on August 6. Bears Ears National Monument in Utah. (Photo: Bob Wick / Bureau of Land Management) Mining companies are setting their sights on two national monuments in Utah. KNAU's Chris Clements reports the monuments were slashed by President Donald Trump last month, opening them up to new mining claims. Seven mining claims were filed in Bears Ears National Monument a day after President Trump announced the cuts, with two filed in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument less than a month after that. Autumn Gillard is a member of the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah. “It’s just very unfortunate that our public lands and Native American ancestral homelands are being put up so quickly on the chopping block.” She worries if the claims one day become mines, they will hurt a unique landscape that is home to thousands of cultural sites, but Brian Somers of the Utah Mining Association says he is confident any mining would be responsible. “We can develop our minerals in a way that respects the environment.” And, he says, mining the monuments for minerals like uranium could help reduce dependence on foreign adversaries. It is unclear if the U.S. Bureau of Land Management will approve the claims, since Trump's executive orders only allow them after September 11. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Ohio is expanding its fracking industry despite concerns of its environmental impact 1.4 billion gallons of fracking wastewater, or toxic brine, is being pumped into injection wells for long term storage in Ohio every year. This salty wastewater byproduct of fracking is full of heavy metals, radioactive materials, cancer-causing benzene and hazardous chemical additives from the fracking process. Just outside of Marietta, the injection wells that are supposed to hold this sludge and keep it away from nearby drink water aquafers are failing. At least one third of the toxic fracking wastewater currently stored underground in Ohio comes from other states. In addition to this already existing containment and importing concerns, Ohio has been increasing its own fracking footprint over the last three years by leasing out its public land to this industry, oftentimes to out-of-state developers. In September, nearly 3,000 acres of Wayne National Forest, Ohio's only national forest, will be auctioned off for these purposes, despite concerns about fracking's environmental impact and effect on nearby populations. Thursday on the "Sound of Ideas" hosted by Stephanie Haney, we'll discuss fracking, its toxic wastewater byproduct and the impact its storage could have in Ohio. The protest period for the September sale of land for fracking in Wayne National Forest is open until Monday, Aug. 17. Protests must be mailed or hand delivered to the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management. Note: We reached out to the Bureau of Land Management and the Ohio Oil and Gas Land Management Commission, both of which are organizations involved in the leasing of development rights for possible fracking. While the Ohio Oil and Gas Commission did not respond to requests for a statement, the Bureau of Land Management provided the following statement to the Sound of Ideas after this episode aired: Oil and gas development on public lands generates substantial revenue that directly benefits the American people, with roughly half of all royalties and fees returning to states like Ohio to support local services and infrastructure. The Bureau of Land Management follows all applicable laws and regulations when evaluating lease parcels, and the Wayne National Forest has confirmed its consent for this lease sale. Hydraulic fracturing is one of the techniques operators may use to produce energy resources, and the BLM requires thorough environmental review before development occurs. Multiple environmental analyses—including the 2016 Environmental Assessment and the 2025 Supplemental Environmental Assessment—found that oil and gas development in the region can provide economic activity, jobs, and revenue while operating under required environmental safeguards designed to protect land, water, wildlife, and surrounding communities.

Arizona Gold and Silver SVP of Exploration Dr. Lex Lambeck joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss new drill results from the Philadelphia Project in Arizona, where four diamond drill holes have extended both high-grade and broad gold mineralization approximately 150 metres vertically above previously reported high-grade intersections in the Perry Zone. Key results included PC26-169, which returned 21.79 metres grading 4.10 g/t gold and 5.8 g/t silver within a broader interval of 73.46 metres grading 1.69 g/t gold, and PC26-167, which returned 15.24 metres grading 2.66 g/t gold and 5.6 g/t silver within 66.81 metres grading 1.12 g/t gold. Lambeck said the new results strengthen the company's geological model by confirming the geometry and continuity of the Perry Zone and demonstrating a substantial mineralized envelope surrounding the high-grade core of the system along the Arabian Fault. With recently expanded Bureau of Land Management permits now in place, Arizona Gold and Silver has access to 16 additional drill pads and has shifted drilling toward testing the projected down-dip continuation of the Perry Zone beneath the Red Hills alteration cap. The company is also evaluating a CSAMT geophysical target beneath Red Hills, which management views as a significant exploration target. Lambeck said the deeper drilling phase now underway represents an important next step in expanding the high-grade core of the Perry Zone while testing the broader district-scale potential of the Philadelphia gold-silver hydrothermal system through the remainder of 2026. #proactiveinvestors #arizonagoldandsilverinc #tsxv #azs #otcqb #azasf #PhiladelphiaProject #Gold #Silver #Mining #ArizonaMining #Drilling #ResourceExpansion #MiningNews

The Bureau of Land Management recently approved the Townsite Data Center, a project that would construct a data center on 88.5 acres of public land near Lake Mead in southern Nevada, marking this as the first approved data center on federal public lands. After skipping the environmental review process, the BLM announced the project as part of the Trump administration's effort to accelerate permitting for data center infrastructure as the demand for AI and computing power continues to grow.After the BLM's announcement in late July, it left many of us asking why public lands should become a resource for powering the AI boom at all, and who ultimately benefits from that development?To help answer those questions and give each of us an idea of how we can actually fight back against data centers, I'm joined by Thomas Meyer, the Deputy Political Director at Food & Water Watch. Based in Seattle, Washington, Thomas works with organizers, volunteers, and coalition partners across the country to develop campaign strategies and build grassroots power. He has played a major role in multiple successful Food & Water Watch campaigns, including stopping dirty energy legislation in Congress and organizing the March to End Fossil Fuels. Thomas brings actionable advice and stories of how communities across the country, sometimes starting with just one brave individual, have successfully stopped data centers where they live.

Interview with Mike Sieb, President & Director of Getchell Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/getchell-gold-csegtch-low-cost-117000-oz-pa-with-105-year-life-of-mine-7731Recording date: 30th July 2026Getchell Gold Corp (CSE:GTCH) released a 2026 Preliminary Economic Assessment on its flagship Fondaway Canyon Gold Project in Nevada, marking the company's advancement toward a prefeasibility study. The PEA, prepared by SLR Consulting, is limited to the open-pit mineral resources in the project's Central Area.The updated 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate shows 999,000 ounces indicated (22.1 million tonnes at 1.40 g/t Au) and 1.812 million ounces inferred (45.6 million tonnes at 1.24 g/t Au) - a 21% global increase over the 2024 estimate, driven by a targeted ten-hole 2025 drill programme. Indicated resources grew 54% and inferred resources grew 8%. Mineralisation remains open for expansion along strike and dip across multiple sections of the roughly four-kilometre-long Fondaway Canyon gold corridor.The PEA contemplates a conventional open-pit mine feeding a 12,000 tonne-per-day mill - up from an earlier 8,000 tpd concept - over an initial 10.1-year mine life, producing 1.52 million ounces of gold (150,000 oz/year average) via a flotation concentrate sold to a third-party refinery. At a base-case gold price of $3,200/oz, which management describes as conservative relative to current spot, the project shows a pre-tax NPV8% of $1,004 million and after-tax NPV8% of $905 million, a pre-tax IRR of 58.8% (53.1% after-tax), and payback of 1.5 years pre-tax (2.0 years after-tax). Total initial capital cost is $265.3 million including a 20% contingency and life-of-mine cash costs are estimated at $1,740/oz.Despite these economics, Getchell's market capitalisation sits at roughly CA$46 million on 202.6 million shares outstanding. President Mike Sieb attributed a significant portion of that gap to an unresolved third-party claims dispute, in which an outside party has challenged Getchell's title to certain claims despite the company's position that its core claims have been valid and in good standing for 70-75 years, making it the senior claim holder. Management declined to discuss case specifics given ongoing litigation.To fund continued drilling and prefeasibility work - which will focus on converting inferred resources to indicated, along with metallurgical, hydrogeological, and geotechnical studies - management pointed to roughly 50.9 million in-the-money warrants (weighted average exercise price $0.19) that could deliver $2.5-10 million over the next 12 months, alongside 20% insider ownership on a partially diluted basis.Near-term catalysts include a Plan of Operations filing with the Bureau of Land Management targeted for year-end 2026, continued drill results, and progress toward a prefeasibility study expected within approximately two years. The company's low relative capital intensity gives it flexibility to either self-fund toward development or entertain a strategic partner.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/getchell-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

(Courtesy Trust for Public Land) California is moving forward with what could become the second largest tribal land return in state history. The California State Water Resources Control Board has approved $25 million in financing to help the Quartz Valley Indian Reservation acquire nearly 40,000 acres of the Scott River headwaters in Northern California’s Klamath River Basin. The acquisition would return ancestral lands that include salmon-bearing streams, cultural sites, forests, and critical drinking water resources to tribal stewardship. Quartz Valley Indian Reservation Chairman Leonard Lincoln says the project marks a truly historic moment for the tribe. He says for a tribe that was once terminated and subsequently confined to just 2,000 acres, reclaiming nearly 40,000 acres of our ancestral territory is a monumental victory that secures our sovereignty and our people. The acquisition is being supported by Trust for Public Land and the current landowner, EFM Investments and Advisory. Trust for Public Land says returning the land to tribal stewardship will help protect clean water, restore salmon habitat, improve forest health, and strengthen climate resilience throughout the Klamath River Basin while expanding opportunities for cultural access, ecological restoration, and conservation jobs.

(Courtesy National Park Service) The Trump administration is considering a complete or partial reversal of a 20-year federal mineral ban on new oil and gas leasing that protects New Mexico’s Greater Chaco region, and time for public comment is running out. Roz Brown explains. The Department of the Interior says revoking protections on a landscape that holds cultural importance for Indigenous people could boost oil production by more than two million barrels over the next 20 years. Jesse Deubel from the New Mexico Wildlife Federation says despite the importance of oil and gas to New Mexicans’ livelihood and the state’s economy, some things are priceless. “It’s really important to understand that there are some places where it is absolutely inappropriate to risk destruction of sacred sites for the idea that there might be some amount of oil and gas underneath that mineral estate.” The administration is looking at three options: keep a current 10-mile buffer in place, cut it to five miles, or revoke it entirely, which could destroy artifacts and architecture. It argues maximizing fossil fuel production through increased drilling could lower utility and fuel costs and bolster national security. The public has until this Wednesday to comment online through the Bureau of Land Management’s NEPA web page. The Federation’s Andrew Black, a public lands field director in New Mexico, says there is a good reason Chaco is designated a UNESCO World Heritage site — one of only 24 such sites in the U.S. “9th to 13th century complex Pueblo cultural settlements with multi-story houses, sacred sites… the architecture is truly unbelievable. Uh, just from that perspective alone, it is remarkable.” Last week, the New Mexico congressional delegation called on Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to extend the public comment period to 90 days, conduct tribal consultation, and allow extensive public engagement before making a decision. Black says it is the least that should be done. “After various archaeological surveys and studies, that area was determined to have the greatest amount of cultural resources within it. More study and more examination and more analysis needed to be done within that buffer zone.” The buffer zone is home to bobcats, pronghorn, elk and deer, coyotes, bald eagles, small mammals, and various reptiles. New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich calls on the Interior Department to reconsider its oil and gas proposal and honor the public land order approved by the Biden administration in 2023.

The Trump administration is rewriting Bureau of Land Management rules to increase the number of cattle and other livestock that can graze on public lands. The rules affect 155 million acres in the West, an area more than two-and-a-half times the size of Oregon.    The BLM says the proposal “reflects the Trump administration’s priority to reduce unnecessary regulatory burdens, promote productive working lands and strengthen local economies.” But environmental groups have raised concerns about the effect loosening these rules would have on wildlife. And Native American tribes that manage bison anticipate impacts on their herds as well. The public comment period on the proposal closed last week.   We talk with Mark Olalde, reporter for High Country News and Propublica, about the plan and how it would affect ranching as well as wildlife and Indigenous tribes.

President Donald Trump slashed the size of two national monuments in Utah Monday. The sites feature ancient cliff dwellings and scenic canyons, as well as coal and uranium deposits. As Chris Clements of KNAU reports, the move comes over the objections of tribal nations and conservation groups. President Trump issued proclamations that reduce Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante by about 90% each. At a signing event with Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT), Trump said the reduction gives the land “back” to the people of Utah. Trump tried shrinking the monuments during his first term, but former President Joe Biden reversed the decision. Tim Peterson with the conservation nonprofit Grand Canyon Trust says the tribal nations that consider the monuments culturally significant were not consulted. “That lack of consultation represents a violation of federal trust and treaty obligations to tribes.” A survey of Utah residents commissioned by the trust in 2024 shows support for keeping both monuments at the size President Biden determined. Connecticut Justice Alliance (CTJA) Executive Director Christina Quaranta speaks in support of a state senate bill raising the age of arrest in CT and restricting the use of handcuffs on young children in March 2025. (Courtesy CTJA / Vimeo) Connecticut juvenile justice advocates want the state to halt plans for a new youth detention center, as Edwin J. Viera reports. The latest Re-entry, Goal-oriented, Individualized Opportunity to Nurture Success (REGIONS) center is slated to fulfill a 2018 law when the state's last large youth prison closed. Christina Quaranta with the Connecticut Justice Alliance says that was eight years ago and the state should invest in alternatives to incarceration instead. “Opening a new facility would be taking many steps backwards. It would be the opposite of progressive and doing what's right for young people. So, I encourage lawmakers to think about that. The barrier there, folks are like, ‘this is in state statute, this is what we have to do,' and we really need to get rid of that barrier.” In considering alternatives to incarceration, Quaranta says the state must ask young people what they need to be engaged and have the programs and services they require, but there is a disconnect between what policymakers know needs to be done and what families and communities are asking for. Given the short legislative session this year, the state was not able to address alternatives to incarceration. At the start of the session, Quaranta wanted to see lawmakers review the state Department of Corrections budget to find ways to further alternatives to incarceration for youth, but she says the state must keep investments moving forward rather than stalling. “As folks are stopping to make policy decisions, or wait for the elections to come and go, whatever the hiccup is, the dollars need to be bound and moved because it's an urgent issue.” State lawmakers made some youth justice progress in the 2025 legislative session by approving the Raise the Age law. The bill raises the age of arrest for children from 10 to 12 years old under certain circumstances this year. The law will raise the age of arrest again in 2028 from 12 to 14, and restrict the use of handcuffs on children under 14. The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Tribal Council. (Courtesy Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation) The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation has filed a federal lawsuit against the Kansas Lottery, alleging the state is violating tribal sovereignty by selling lottery tickets and operating lottery machines on the Nation’s reservation. Tribal leaders say the lawsuit seeks to protect treaty rights and enforce the federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. (Courtesy U.S. Bureau of Land Management) In California, tribal leaders continue to oppose a federal roundup of wild horses near Mono Lake. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management says the gather is needed because of drought and overgrazing, while tribal leaders argue the horses are culturally significant and want greater tribal involvement in managing the herd. The Cherokee Nation has awarded nearly $1.9 million in public health and wellness grants to dozens of organizations across its reservation. Tribal officials say the funding will support community health programs, mental health services, and wellness initiatives throughout northeastern Oklahoma.

Should we drain Lake Powell to make sure we can save Lake Mead? It's a proposal being made by some scientists in the Colorado River watershed, who say it's more important that Lake Mead stay above a certain level than Lake Powell. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management isn't quite on board with the idea; they're working on some short-term solutions right now to help Lake Powell. Do you agree with the idea? Holly and Greg are split. They go through the pros and cons of this proposal.

In this episode of The Curious Realm, host Christopher Jordan venture with his family to see all the happenings and interview researchers at the 2026 UFO Festival in Roswell, New Mexico. With “Disclosure” on the lips of American politicians, and the overwhelming reminiscence of psyops passed, are the current happenings actually a cracking of the UFO secrecy facade, or are we just repeating the game played so seventy nine years ago after the fateful announcement of the crash of an unknown flying object in the outskirts of Roswell, New Mexico? Our first guest is Dennis Balthaser, Roswell resident and former tour guide in Roswell, New Mexico. We discuss the deep connection of the Roswell community to the occurrence of the Roswell crash, as well as the multi-decade effort to keep investigations into the crash site going. How did we get from a cooperative Federal Bureau of Land Management, who allowed archaeological excavations of the original crash site, to a rancher who was able to purchase ALL of the property surrounding the famed original crash site…who now fully restricts access? Next, we welcome Marc D'Antonio, Chief Photo and Video Analyst for MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network. We discuss how an experience of lost time as a young man, led him an interest in astronomy and what may be in the night sky. We also get into the possible ways UFOs may travel through various media, as well as what is to be made of the now infamous 3iAtlas comet. Our next guest is petroglyph researcher and author of The Humaniverse series, Keith Seland. We talak about his recent research trip to Chaco Canyon, and the locations connection to various Native American cultures in North America. From Petroglyphs to buildings that may mirror constellations of the night sky, what significance did this mysterious location hold for Native American tribes, and messages may it still hold for us today? In this segment we welcome Maria Tellier, head of MUFON New Mexico in Alamo Gordo. We discuss her presentation she gave at the international UFO museum in Roswell, New Mexico. We also get into what makes a good field investigator as well as the current tranches of UFO files being released by the United States government. Next, we welcome geologist and Roswell crash site researcher Frank Kimbler. We discuss the many years of searching the famed crash site and various pieces of debris he has collected over the years. What chemical makeup do these fragments have? Can we create these materials on Earth, and what does it take to declare a piece of material as scientifically “Extraterrestrial”? Up next we sit down with longtime Roswell researcher and author Kevin Randle to talk about his many years of study about the disinformation campaign regarding the Roswell crash and why the US Government still side-steps the questions regarding this now infamous event. Why are there no files regarding Roswell in the US War Department UFO File releases and how can we finally bring the light of truth and closure to the longest running UFO Case in American history? Our next guest is researcher, author and experiencer Kathleen Marden. We discuss her deep research into the many years of misinformation, disinformation and defamatory actions toward witnesses and experiencers alike by the United States Government. From changing the Project Blue Book Report, sanitizing the Betty and Barney Hill case and more, to the continued discreditation of researchers and witnesses to silence investigation into the topic. Why has the US Government spent the better part of 60 years simultaneously carrying out a campaign to both say they are not involved with UFOs while making concerted efforts in the media and to hide what they do know?! Next, we are joined by Thom Reed, experiencer and host of The Know. We get into the “reed Family Incident” which was entered into Massachusetts State record officially as an “off world event” and even recognized by the UN. But what happens when a family incident with a UFO becomes a documentary story and the facts become changed? What happens when tv production companies begin to alter stories, add witnesses who were not there, as well as even change the name of the experience itself leading to public misunderstandings and misrepresentation of the true events? These altered facts now become the paradigm of truth know to the viewers who do not know the true history of the event, setting up a dangerous way to carry UFO history into the future! Our final guest is Donald Raymond Schmitt, lead researcher for Rosell International UFO Museum in Roswell, New Mexico. We discuss the many years of government obfuscation and dilution of facts about the Rosswell crash of 1947. How this event set forth a blueprint by which UFO coverup and black budget projects would continue as a way to hide possible alien technologies that have crashed to Earth. We also discuss the ongoing efforts of declassification and releases of UFO files to the public and how the timing of these files may bely the fact that the US Government is still unwilling to release all they have and will continue their ongoing campaigns of lies, back room deals with military contractors, and hiding the greater truth of UFOs from humanity. Join the Curious Realm as we travel to the 2026 Roswell UFO Festival to discuss this unique point in history with UFO researchers and experiencers alike.

As we mark America's 250th birthday, we celebrate parts of America's enduring ecology, including our forests, national parks and other public lands. At the heart of one of Washington State's most expansive wild ecosystems is North Cascades National Park, just a three-hour drive from Seattle yet one of the lesser-known parks.   Also, around 30% of the United States is federal public lands, and the biggest chunk or 245 million acres falls under the purview of the Bureau of Land Management. BLM lands are sometimes called “leftover” or “forgotten” lands, but they offer free or very cheap camping and feature a stark beauty that captivated writer and photographer Josh Jackson, author of the 2025 book, ‘The Enduring Wild: A Journey into California's Public Lands.'   And when European colonists landed in North America, some of the most dramatic changes they made were to our forests. Clearcutting ran rampant, but now, on the 250th birthday of the United States, much of our forests have recovered, particularly in the Northeast. And today, maintaining our forests is vital for mitigating the effects of climate change. -- Sign up for the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT! We'll talk with Yurok activist and attorney Amy Bowers Cordalis about how multiple generations of her family have advocated for the protection of Northern California's Klamath River, a crucial habitat for salmon and the lifeblood of the Yurok tribe.

Host Zach Urness and intern Makenzie Stamets talk about the future of what was once among state's most beloved campgrounds: Yellowbottom Recreation Site. Located in the Quartzville corridor northeast of Sweet Home — and just past Green Peter Lake — the area is home to old-growth forest, beautiful swimming holes and unique activities like gold panning. For years, Yellowbottom was the anchor for visiting the area and staying overnight. But issues with giant trees caused the site to close. Now, the Bureau of Land Management is laying out its plan for the future of Yellowbottom and its place in the Quartzville corridor.

"The bison will stay, no matter what happens here, and we will pursue all legal remedies for appealing this decision... but we will continue to manage a herd of bison, we will continue to open these lands to the public, we will continue to grow American Prairie." Ben Goldsmith is joined once again by Alison Fox, CEO of American Prairie, the ambitious conservation organisation working to protect and restore one of the world's great remaining wilderness landscapes across the Northern Great Plains of Montana.Since Alison's last appearance on the podcast, the ground has shifted dramatically. In a move that has sent shockwaves through the conservation world, the Bureau of Land Management has revoked American Prairie's grazing permits for their bison. A decision that strikes at the very heart of the organisation's rewilding mission.This episode is a candid, urgent conversation about the realities of large-scale rewilding in the modern American West - where ranching culture, federal land politics, and a bold conservation vision are in direct collision.Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast. Join him as he speaks to people from all over the world who champion nature and are helping to restore habitats and wildlife to some of the most nature depleted parts of our planet.This podcast is produced by The Podcast Coach.Text Rewilding the World here.

  While the east coast prepares for a record-breaking heat dome over the holiday weekend, those of us here in the West continue to deal with wildfires. Governor Cox and other western governors are coming together to improve coordination between states and the federal government when it comes to wildfires and land management. The hope – according to the governors – is to better protect communities from wildfires now and into the future. The Western Governors Association also says it's important to include public lands and energy in the conversation.

It is billed as “the world's longest and toughest snowmachine race”. Next year, the Iron Dog Race plans to add three checkpoints to its over 2,000-mile course. As KOTZ's Desiree Hagen reports, a new race route, announced earlier this month, has been several years in the making and crosses through two national wildlife refuges. The new route adds the communities of Huslia, Shungnak, and Ambler. Rick Paquette is the executive director of the Iron Dog. He says it will not add miles, but would traverse through new terrain. He says the race has been working on permitting for the route for a while. “This isn’t something like overnight that happened, you know what I mean. This was over seven years in the making, this is a really big deal, and we’re super excited to do this.” Why did it take so long? The proposed race route passes through federally protected land, more than 100 miles of it (79 miles on Koukuk, 34 miles on Selawik) through the Koyukuk and Selawik National Wildlife Refuges. Both refuges rejected the initial request, citing similar reasons: the race would be a public safety problem, require more budget and staff than available, and not align with the refuges' purpose or mission. A letter from Selawik Wildlife Refuge said that a portion of the proposed route would also violate the Wilderness Act and the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (ANILCA) through 1.3 miles of trail. The managers of the refuges were unavailable for comment. Iron Dog also submitted a special use permit through Kobuk Valley National Park, but changed their race route to a section of the Kobuk River that does not fall under park service authority, according to a representative from the Western Arctic Parklands. Race organizers appealed the rejections in June 2025 and reached out to the office of U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK). A press release from the senator said he and his team played a “key role” in advancing the new route and drafted an appeal that “highlighted inconsistencies” preventing the route's expansion. “Obviously anytime you have a bunch of different organizations that you’re trying to collaborate with and get one final answer on, it’s extremely difficult. I think, new administrations, and definitely, Sen. Sullivan’s office really helped push this over and help us get to the goal line on this.” Paquette says Sullivan's office helped with letters of support, and with multiple organizations, including the Bureau of Land Management. And it paid off. In December, Sara Boario, Regional Director of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, overturned the previous denials, allowing for the new race routes. Boario's office did not respond to questions from KOTZ news. Paquette says there are challenges with a race this large, which passes through 23 mostly remote checkpoints. “It’s a beast to put on this race logistically, and there’s always struggles with fuel and getting equipment out, and getting, you know, resources out there.” Both Ambler and Shungnak have experienced prolonged fuel shortages in the last several years, often in winter when storms can ground fuel planes. Still, Paquette says Iron Dog is prepared for those challenges. “We do our best to make sure we get all the resources for the communities that we need to put a strong race.” Paquette says Iron Dog has several programs that the new race communities will benefit from, including free helmets and free life jackets for local youth. Last year, Iron Dog established the Iron Pup program, which fosters young racers. Iron Dog also founded the Make it Run program that partners with schools and engineers to encourage technical and mechanical training. Paquette says there is also economic benefits to the new communities. “There’s gonna be publicity, there’s gonna be people going through these areas, you know. We send resources up there, spending money, and, you know, giving a chance for these folks to see this incredible race.” The Iron Dog race typically begins in early February. A date has not been set for next year’s race. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

Across the United States, from Alaska to Puerto Rico, there are about 112 million acres of officially designated wilderness. That amounts to about 5 percent of the country's land mass. It might appear to be even smaller when you consider that more than half of those 112 million acres protected as wilderness are in Alaska. To say that wilderness is at risk from the human imprint isn't hyperbole. While there are millions of acres of proposed, recommended, and potential wilderness across the country, Congress acts extremely slowly on these matters. Indeed, it was back in 1989 when America's Red Rock Wilderness Act was first proposed in Congress to protect 8 million acres in Utah as official wilderness. The clock continues to tick on that proposal. Without official designation as wilderness, lands can be impacted by motorized and mechanized activities, from logging and mining and energy development to off-road-vehicle recreation. But the threats to both unofficial and official wilderness might be growing, as the Trump administration has called for a review of wilderness management on lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and even the National Park Service.
