Ian Rose on Nostr: This is infuriating. A rare plant was removed from the US Endangered Species list ...
This is infuriating. A rare plant was removed from the US Endangered Species list despite 90% of its population occurring on one Washington golf course. The result was fairly predictable. The golf course mows it down, and we have a completely avoidable extinction risk of not only an important pollinator plant, but an Indigenous first food too.
