Jan Miyasaki interviews Sierra Powers and Thistle Pettersen, representing the group Madison Action for Mining Alternatives, about the link between mining (a.k.a. “Extreme Resource Extraction”) and climate change. The group is holding a fundraiser to support Neighbors-First of Jackson County in their legal efforts to block frac-sand mines in their neighborhoods. The fundraiser “Leap into a Green Future” will be held February 27, from 6-11 PM at the WilMar Community Center.
