Too Much is a Good Thing

by Jorie Latham

Never thought we’d be faced with such a dilemma: to be so overwhelmed with great articles, we couldn’t fit them all into one newsletter. But they are all so important, and so full of really solid, interesting information, that we couldn’t leave any out…so we have decided to produce a second edition in the coming months. In addition to our usual authors—mostly members of our esteemed steering committee—we sought input from various experts and wow! …did they ever come through for us. So whether you are wondering what is going on around Pussy’s Pond, how the nitrogen problem is being addressed, or if there is any hope of putting an end to methoprene spraying, read on! And just when we thought we knew all about phragmites, one of our “bad guy” invasives, guess what?…these reeds could be “heroes” in resisting sea level rise! Check our next issue for the true story from marine scientist Judith Weis.

Bottom line, it is certainly exciting to have so much going on that relates to Accabonac. I’m going to make this short and let you get on with your reading. Enjoy! And watch for Part II.
