SUMMARY:Western Snowy Plover Walk About!
DESCRIPTION:*Sunday\, Feb. 28\, 9:00am – 11:00am:* Join the Wild Equity Institute for a leisurely walk along Ocean Beach to search for the threatened Western Snowy Plover. We’ll be meeting at 9 am in order to coincide with low tide—this should give us the best chance of spotting the Plover as well as other shorebirds.\n\nThe Snowy Plover is a small shorebird threatened by human activities and habitat degradation. Join us to see this adorable species in its native habitat and learn more about what the Park Service is doing to help save this little puffball of feathers.\n\nBONUS: We’ll also be starting the morning with Andytown Coffee Roasters’ famous Snowy Plover coffee beverage!\nMeet at the patch of grass at the intersection of Pacheco St. and the Great Highway.

SUMMARY:Finding San Francisco's Lost Species: The Franciscan Manzanita
DESCRIPTION:*Saturday\, March 5\, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm:* \nAlthough there are over 100 species and subspecies of manzanita\, until 2009\, it was thought that San Francisco’s own manzanita\, the Franciscan Manzanita\, had gone extinct.\nThe Franciscan manzanita is a subtly charming flowering shrub found nowhere else on Earth. Its tragic history is filled with heroic acts by botanists striving to keep the species alive. In 1906\, the specimens first used to identify the species were rescued from the California Academy of Sciences as fires driven by the San Francisco earthquake ravaged the Academy’s collections. In 1947 a famous botanist stood in front of earth-moving equipment to wrest the last known wild plants from a construction site. The plants were sent to a botanical garden\, and no one found the plant in the wild again. The Franciscan Manzanita was rediscovered in the wild in 2009\, has since been listed as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act\, and there are now over 30 Franciscan Manzanita plantings alive on the Presidio Bluffs!\n\nJoin the Wild Equity Institute to learn more about the endangered Franciscan Manzanita\, it’s ecology\, and what the National Park Service and other conservationists are doing to protect this magnificent species. We’ll be joined by Michael Vasey and Tom Parker\, co-authors of Field Guide to Manzanitas. \n\nYou can watch a short documentary about the recovery of the Franciscan Manzanita here.\n\nMeet us at North Baker Beach Parking Lot off of Battery Chamberlin Road. From there\, we will hike north along the Pacific bluffs and through the manzanita’s critical habitat. Once we reach the Golden Gate Bridge\, we’ll pour some Manzanita drinks (apple juice and champagne) and make a toast to the survival of this wonderful species! In the spirit of resource conservation\, please bring a reusable cup if you wish to participate! \n\nWe’ll also have books\, t-shirt\, and water bottles for sale.\n\nHope to see you there!\n\nThe Franciscan Manzanita \n\nEvicted!

SUMMARY:Stop the Sharp Park Golf Course Bailout
DESCRIPTION:UPDATED: Thursday\, December 15\, 1pm\, San Francisco City Hall Room 400: Join us at a San Francisco Planning Commission and Recreation and Park Commission joint meeting where the commissioners will vote on a taxpayer funded bailout of the money-losing\, endangered species-killing Sharp Park Golf Course. This meeting will likely be a long one: we need you to come early\, stay late\, and demand that the commissioners oppose this terrible project.\n \nA coalition of environmental\, environmental justice\, social service and neighborhood park groups have come together to oppose this golf course project\, demanding that the City eliminate it from the environmental review of the Significant Natural Resource Area Management Plan: and if they don’t demanding that they reject the environmental review process all together.\n \nGolf industry groups have pressured San Francisco’s Mayor to bailout Sharp Park Golf Course for years\, and the Recreation and Parks Department and in 2009 it drafted a controversial proposal to redevelop Sharp Park Golf Course. This proposal was heavily criticized by environmentalists\, budget hawks\, and Bay Area scientists\, and the proposal died on the vine.\n \n\nBut in an Orwellian move\, seven years later the Recreation and Park Department inserted the golf course redevelopment project into the final environmental review for San Francisco’s Significant Natural Resource Areas Management Plan (“SNRAMP”)\, a plan that many\, including Wild Equity\, once supported. This was done even though the Department promised the public in 2009 that the golf course redevelopment project would never be integrated with the SNRAMP plan.\n \n\nWild Equity\, the Sierra Club\, Surfrider Foundation\, San Francisco Tomorrow\, S.F. League of Conservation Voters\, National Parks Conservation Association\, S.F. Green Party\, Sequoia Audubon and others all agree: the environmental benefits proposed by SNRAMP in other areas are far outweighed by the environmental destruction the golf course bailout would cause at Sharp Park. We need to stop this proposal\, and that’s why we are asking you to join us at noon on December 15 at City Hall Room 400 to demand that the golf course project be removed from SNRAMP’s environmental review process\, and if the City refuses to remove it\, demand that the entire environmental review document be rejected.
