Opinion/Millar: Legislation to encourage forest conservation is long overdue
Scott Millar
Scott Millar is director of community assistance and conservation at Grow Smart Rhode Island.
What can provide Rhode Island with clean and safe air to breathe and water to drink, create jobs, fight climate change, moderate stifling hot temperatures, protect native wildlife, provide a multitude of recreational opportunities and add an invaluable sense of place to communities?
The answer is Rhode Island’s forests. Conserving them is essential to sustain our quality of life. That’s why we must act now to adopt the Forest Conservation Act to conserve what’s left of our forests before it’s too late.
Opponents were geared up for battle last year. But the pandemic shut down the legislature.
Now all of the bills crafted by opponents of Rhode Island s Reproductive Privacy Act have been reintroduced and queued up for a House Judiciary hearing on Friday, same time, same place as the annual fight over death with dignity legislation.
Introduced several times before but never passed, the legislation would insulate a physician from any civil or criminal liability or professional disciplinary action for prescribing medication to be self-administered by a patient to hasten death.
