Candidates on the Environment

Our whitewater rafting and adventure travel company supports the environment and does not believe our natural places are a particularly a partisan issue.  O.A.R.S. believes in the stewardship of public lands, and along with guests, has contributed more $3 million in donations and fees toward the preservation of the environment and to various conservation initiatives in their 40 years in business.  O.A.R.S. does not expect everyone to share in our eco-practices.

For non-biased information about political candidates, check out OnTheIssues.org.  The mission of this organization is to provide non-partisan information for voters in the Presidential election, so that votes can be based on issues rather than on personalities and popularity.  According to their website, they get their information daily from newspapers, speeches, press releases, and the Internet.
