Review for Ecological Options Network, Bolinas, CA, USA
I am a Professor of Management Systems, Environmental Economics and Statistics. The information and videos provided by EON allowed me to maintain expertise in this field regarding California Pesticides when I was unavailable to attend a variety of hearings and board meetings. Even those I attended, I consistently used EON reports and videos for records to review the actual statements and testimony as documents for reports that I wrote. I also have been reading EON materials on numerous other subjects as that has assisted me with recognizing patterns of strategy within certain causes, particularly those attempting to fool a busy and naive public.

using their videos and reports as foundations to the reports and press releases that I write. Only on two occassions have I seen inconsistency with EON information and my own, yet on both occassions EON was correct, and my previous information was wrong.

Add staff to their organization so they can get to more functions and activities and document even greater numbers of these functions for an anxious audience.
