S.F. Bay Areas Green Means PBS TV Program featured LightHawks... airborne defenders of the environment.greenspun.com : LUSENET : Sustainable Business & Living iForum : One Thread |
Was watching some PBS programming Sunday and caught the clip about LightHawk. Check out their web-site.Diane
Since 1979, Bay area-based Lighthawk has been acting as an airborne defender of the environment. Lighthawk flies politicians and members of the media over ecologically endangered areas, exposing them to deforested areas and unchecked housing development. Once given Lighthawk's unique aerial perspective, politicians and activists can come to appreciate the full scope of ecological damage and how to stop it.
