That’s right – we’re moving. So please excuse our silence lately as we change from our original office space of the past decade (!) to new offices in the funky old Entler Hotel, located in the pulsating heart of downtown Shepherdstown, WV.

Even bigger news – we’ve hired an office administrator, Teri Biebel. Teri lives just outside of town and comes to us after a long career on the admin side of the gaming industry. (No, we’re not funding our operation now with roulette.) So we’ll be running smother than ever soon, once we settle some telecom issues and get the new computers online…

Thanks to all of you who are supporting SkyTruth. We have plenty of work to do in 2011, tracking oil pollution in the Gulf of Mexico and other areas around the world; measuring the impacts of mountaintop mining on landscapes and water quality; monitoring and forecasting the spread of natural-gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale; illustrating the impacts of logging, mining and climate change; and responding to environmental emergencies, like the BP spill this year, to ensure that accurate information is getting to responders and the public.

If that sounds like something you’d like to be part of, please make a tax-deductible donation. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and it’s your help that keeps us on the job!
