124. Build a Community of Activists with Mitch Stevens and Russell Lowes

In episode 124 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we explore what it means to be an activist and environmental advocate and how to build a community around conservation.  To me, being an activist and environmentalist is simply a part of life. They're not a hobby or second thought because I've always had a strong sense of justice no matter where I lived or the community present in my life. As I've gotten older, I've begun to realize that community makes a huge difference in our mental health and our ability to create meaningful and impactful change.  To help explore how you, no matter your location, can begin to take the reigns and tackle some of your area's environmental issues, I had the pleasure of chatting with two gentlemen who, like me, have embodied a life of activism in their community.  Mitch Stevens and Russell Lowes have been enjoying the wild lands of America for decades, going back to their elementary school years. Mitch has been the Outings Chair for the Sierra Club's southern Arizona group since the early 2000s. He has led outings throughout the southwest and California's Sierra Nevada Mountains. Mitch also founded Southwest Discoveries, an ecotourism company based in Tucson, Arizona. Russell was involved with about 40 kids from two high schools in Arizona, setting up the first pro-wilderness group in the state. He has been promoting Wilderness Areas since then and has been an avid hiker since age 10.

About The Guest(s): Obi Kaufmann is an artist, author, and naturalist known for his California Field Atlas series. His latest book, "The Deserts of California," explores the biodiversity and ecological systems of California's deserts. Summary: Obi Kaufmann joins hosts Chris Clarke and Alicia Pike on the "90 Miles from Needles" podcast to discuss his latest book, "The Deserts of California." The book is part of his California Field Atlas series, which aims to explore the how of ecological systems rather than the what or where. Kaufmann shares his fascination with the complexity and diversity of California's deserts and the importance of celebrating and understanding their biodiversity. He also discusses the challenges of conservation and preservation in the face of development and exploitation. Kaufmann emphasizes the need for a democratic approach to finding solutions and the power of combining data and love in stewardship efforts. The conversation touches on the changing nature of the deserts, the importance of oral tradition and sharing knowledge, and the role of beauty and art in inspiring curiosity and hope. Key Takeaways: The California Field Atlas series aims to explore the how of ecological systems rather than the what or where. The deserts of California are full of biodiversity and ecological complexity, challenging the perception of them as empty spaces. Conservation efforts require a combination of data, love, and understanding to address the challenges of development and exploitation. The deserts are a moving target, constantly changing and adapting to new conditions. The power of beauty and art lies in its ability to inspire curiosity and hope.

When things get too simple, too generalized, we miss so much." - Obi Kaufmann "The desert is doing so much heavy lifting for both of those goals [conservation and carbon zero]." - Obi Kaufmann "Democracy is having this conversation right now here." - Obi Kaufmann "The desert itself is an indicator landscape, if you will. It's a litmus test of our stewardship." - Obi Kaufmann "Acceptance of the natural cycles and patterns in nature brings peace and understanding." - Alicia Pike "The combination of data and love is a powerful force for conservation and preservation." - Obi Kaufmann Become a desert defender!: https://90milesfromneedles.com/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wind River Range in Wyoming is one of the most beautiful places in the U.S with it's crystal clear mountain lakes, towering peaks and stunning meadows. It hosts 19 of Wyoming's highest peaks, 3 Wilderness Areas and 2 National Forests. There is no shortage of amazing and epic views in the Winds and I was fortunate enough to go there on my very first backpacking trip. I had no idea what to expect on this 3 day, 2 night backpacking trip. I had been to the mountains of Colorado and Montana before but had never actually spent the night in the backcountry. I had some preconceived notions about backpacking and I had an almost unrealistic idea of what it would be like. I definitely thought it would be easier but the elevation and a combination of pack weight and mileage proved that this trip would be no walk in the park. We started at the Big Sandy Lake Trailhead, hiked roughly 6-7 miles to camp at Big Sandy Lake and set up our base camp. Big Sandy Lake is one of the more popular places to camp but fortunately for us we hiked in on a Thursday so we had almost the entire lake to ourselves. I won't go into much more detail about the trip itself so you'll have to stick around to hear about it! This trip is what got me hooked on backpacking and I'm so thankful my friends Ben and Robin invited me to Wyoming to experience the awe-inspiring beauty first hand.

A guide for those interested in hearing more about fishing and other paths to eating more responsibly. Now here's your host, Mark Norquist. Mark:   00:23      Hey everyone. Welcome to episode number eight of Modern Carnivore Podcast. Mark:   00:30       Today we're going to talk about Wilderness areas. And more specifically, we're going to take you to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, which is the most threatened Wilderness in the U.S. So before we get into that, let's do a little background on what we mean by wilderness with a capital w. The Wilderness Act was signed into law by President Lyndon B Johnson in 1964 and it created the National Wilderness Preservation System and it also put a legal definition around the term Wilderness. One of the primary authors of this act, Howard Zahniser, uh, defined it this way, "A Wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain. BWCAW Hunting and Fishing Mark:   01:43             It's really protective overlay that's applied to certain areas in our country; certain areas of public lands. They could be national forest parks, wildlife refuges, any number of different places. Um, one of the criticisms that has been made in the past about it is the reference to quote man himself as is a visitor who does not remain. But I think that's the critical element of it and why it is really unique. So if you think about it, there are very few places where there are no buildings, no roads, no machines, and the only really semi-permanent structures I can think of would be these throne toilets. Basically a seat to sit on and do your business and the fire grades to control where you, where you do fires. And that's specific to the Boundary Waters where we're at today. And I think that's a pretty special thing in something that is, that is needed in this world. Mark:   02:52

John Sturgeon has been in litigation with the National Park Service for a decade, including two trips to the Supreme Court, over whether he can use his hovercraft to travel on Alaska’s Nation River through the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve. While Park Service regulations bar the use of hovercraft within the National Park system, Sturgeon argues that a special statute applicable only in Alaska excludes navigable rivers like the Nation from the Service’s regulations. The Supreme Court is reviewing the Ninth Circuit’s most recent decision in the case, which holds that the Park Service can use the implied reserved water rights doctrine of Winters v. U.S., to regulate activities on navigable rivers in and around National Parks, even though the federal government transferred ownership of the bed and bank of those rivers to the applicable state upon statehood. Because it is not limited to Alaska, The Ninth Circuit’s holding opens up a wide opportunity for the federal government to regulate private activity on state owned rivers running through or even near Wilderness Areas and National Parks and Forests across the country.Featuring:Tony Francois, Senior Attorney, Pacific Legal Foundation Teleforum calls are open to all dues paying members of the Federalist Society.
