Trump Admin Reappoints Pendley as BLM Director

October 10, 2019
William Perry Pendley was recently re-appointed as acting director of the Federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Interior Secretary David Bernhardt used his power to extend Pendley’s appointment and once again side-step the requirement of a confirmation from Congress. Pendley was first made acting director in the summer of 2019, and his current appointment will last until January 3, 2020. Many environmentalist groups have raised concerns about this appointment due to Pendley’s history of anti-public land sentiment.

Will trees save the earth? Not a simple solution.

Recently a team of forest ecologists declared global tree restoration is one of the most effective carbon reduction solutions.
