  3. "The Palos Verdes debris avalanche is the largest, by volume, late Quaternary mass-wasted deposit recognized from the inner California Borderland basins.

  4. An end to plunder and pillage: how a First Nations nature reserve became a model for the world

    "Amid widespread global biodiversity loss and last-ditch international meetings to protect what remains, many now wonder if the triumphs – and stumbles – of Gwaii Hanaas could be a model for how Indigenous stewardship of lands and waters could act as a safety rail on a planet dangerously out of control."

    "With mines running dry and fish stocks depleted from over-harvesting, industry turned its focus in the mid-20th century to clear-cut logging – with plans to fully clear the archipelago of old-growth trees by 1996. Clearcut logging in other parts of Haida Gwaii is still permitted, and there are growing concerns that the practice isn’t sustainable, with more than 2,000 hectares (nearly 5,000 acres) of forest still clear-cut each year."
