For those of you who don't know about This Week in Trees, let me recommend it to you because it provides regular updates on all the tree news IMHO, wherever it's happening in the US and abroad, and has been doing so for years now. Deane Rimerman is the sole reporter doing it and Deane is asking for support. So please help Deane so that we can continue to get This Week in Trees.

Hello everyone,
This is to let you know that after 2 1/2 years of providing you uninterrupted access to news about Earth's Trees my hard drive died last night and I lost the past 5 days of tree news stories...
This project has been a labor of love that takes many daily hours to assemble and distribute. And right now I could really use some encouragement and understanding, and especially some $$$ to help me get a new hard drive and get back to work again.
In the past, the funding for this project has been via my personal student loans, as I'm in the Master's in Public Administration Program (Evergreen State, Olympia, WA.), yet that money is not currently available. So if anyone can hire me for research work, or if you can simply donate what you can afford to give I'd very much appreciate it.
Please! ---> If you've ever benefited from this news service let me know about it with an email reply, or a phone call (1-360-789-7843), or especially some money. If I get enough money I'll be able to afford put the data base of these newletters online in a coherent searchable format.
My hope is that this data set will ultimately lead to a world-wide grassroots forest protection movement that thrives on a web-based network of interaction and communication that's based on not just the existing data I sent out, but also on additional data readers from around the world will add, especially via Google earth.
To make this dream come true please donate money by going to my website www.peacefromtrees.org and clicking on the paypal link in the upper left hand corner. Also you can mail checks and money orders to:
Deane Rimerman
PO Box 2640
Olympia, WA 98507
Thank you for taking the time to consider my circumstances and if you have any feedback at all that would make this news service better, please let me know?
Be well, Deane
