TU National was all over the GLOBAL WARMING THING from the beginning; IMO they look at "threats" to trout as a means to increasing membership.... Last I read "trout" there was a deal about natural gas exploration and drilling in PA and NY. Seems they claim hydro-fracking pollutes trout streams.
IMO TU National is a joke; the real difference members make is locally not nationally and many chapters (including LR) like the Kennebec Chapter (My chaper while I lived in ME are very active environmentally and also provide aquatic education programs in schools.
I am now BURNED OUT ON TU & retired.
