Beaver Trust has been at it again, this time with a climate change summit of their very own. This happened two days ago and you might recognize California’s own Dr. Emily Fairfax.
Excellent! You know the staff of Beaver Trust requested a meeting with me, and I assumed it was to ask for my many wise thoughts about urban beavers, or generating public interest by throwing a festival but it was just because they wanted to poach the design of my ecosystem poster and replace it with their own english species.
Ahh sure I said. Go ahead. Mention Worth A Dam somewhere in its release. Then the Scottish Wild group asked the same thing and I said yeah yeah take a number. But no one asked me to be part of a summit! Hrmph.
I spent yesterday painfully cataloguing the reasons people wanted to kill beavers in 2020. You can definitely see that it’s a drought year because people are more worried about them blocking water than raising it!
Once again the easiest problems to solve are at the top and the actual problems that require skill to solve are at the bottom. Because people are very stupid when it comes to solving beaver problems. You knew that, right?
