This issue calls readers to action to save the Headwaters ancient forest groves from salvage logging. It also includes reports on medical hemp, non-native species arriving with imported logs from Siberia, and the Coho salmon. Dan Hamburg endorses Ralph Nader for US president.

The proposed Ward Valley dump endangers the Colorado River. The waste would be buried in shallow unlined trenches—a crude technique which is a proven failure. Three separate reports confirm that radioactivity could fold its way to the Colorado River—a major source of drinking and irrigation water for Southern California.
