"I hope we learn from this experience, that in order to make change, we must early-on become and then remain engaged in all aspects of our community planning and growing process."

Wilmington, NC – Thirteen acres of forest at UNCW were cleared last week. But it's not the university Andy Wood is upset with. It's the local environmental community.

Andy Wood is education curator for Audubon North Carolina and author of "Backyard Carolina"- a collection of his WHQR commentaries.

Andy Wood, a WHQR commentator since February 1987, is an ecologist and conservation educator with an affinity for ecosystem habitats in and around southeastern North Carolina, and the plants, wildlife, and people they support. A collection of Andy’s commentaries is collected into his first book, Backyard Carolina: Two Decades of Public Radio Commentary.
