Timber industry, mill workers cry foul over voters drive By SCOTT SONNER, AP, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
The ad campaign, with testimonials and vivid photographs depicting damage to the outdoors, urges nature lovers to turn their environmental enthusiasm into political participation to help protect the nation's forests, streams and wildlife.
"The environment is the one issue that trumps all others," said Rick Ridgeway, Patagonia's executive vice president for marketing. "There is no economy or nation left to keep secure if the planet itself and the resource base it supports is left to die."
But a timber industry group is taking exception to a stark photograph it says the giant outdoor company is using to misrepresent the big picture - an image of a "nasty clearcut" shot in 1983 in Canada.------------------------------------------- posted 8:53 AM :: reference link ::
