VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

as per the first link dated 7/5/2023...
"The EJF program is a group that is focused on the promotion of advocacy, community education and overall care, respect and understanding of street trees and green spaces in the City of Newburgh and beyond. The program was created through the partnership of advocacy groups such as Outdoor Promise [OP], the Conservation Advisory Council [CAC] and the Greater Newburgh Parks Conservancy [GNPC]. Further continued support has also been provided by the Newburgh City Council, the city manager’s office and the city staff who contributed additional resources for the group."

Again...It's all about the flow. If the flow of money stops it all stops, every aspect of socioeconomics is being monetized. Those natural environments only need preservation. But there's no money in that. Enter the memes of "accessibility", "environmental justice", "inclusion", etc.. 'Environmental Justice', one clear cutting at a time. How long before the progressives send a virtue signal and plant a huge windmill overlooking the Hudson.
