•     Saving the Rockies from inappropriate energy development. We’re continuing to work  diligently to protect the Rocky Mountain Front from inappropriate energy development with our partners in the Coalition to Protect the Rocky Mountain Front and with our Canadian friends in Rescue the Rockies. We successfully stopped the EIS for drilling proposals. Now we are working to buy-out the existing leases.

•     A demonstration project to restore prairie habitat. S.O.S is partnering with another  nonprofit, Sacred Ground International, to plan and implement a demonstration project to restore prairie habitat and its cultural uses on a 3,000- acre ranch in eastern Montana. Focusing on the use of buffalo and integrating culturally significant paint horses, light grazing will continue. We will use a combination of traditional wisdom and conventional science to restore degraded grasslands, wetlands, and medicinal plants.

•     Sustainable choices. In light of the recently released Millennium Assessment Report, it is obvious each individual must look anew at how their choices affect the quality of our environment. As a feature of our work to educate the public on issues of sustainability, SOS is developing radio spots to address specific questions people may have on how to live more sustainably.

S.O.S looks forward to continued affiliation with NRCC and its outstanding research associates. For more information on S.O.S, please visit our website at s-o-solutions.org.
