Tom Wolforth’s prime mission was to appropriately handle the remains and make sure they could be reburied. He has been working closely with the tribe and the municipality to address their concerns. One concern, Martin said, was that these exposed remains could pose a risk of disease, especially if the dead had been buried during the time of the 1918 flu pandemic. But Wolforth assured them that if properly handled this shouldn’t be a problem.</p><img src='http://leonetwork.org/en/attachments/thumbnail/9CBD4FBB-1341-4434-B5EC-F4E0B5FADD6E'/><p><a href='http://leonetwork.org/posts/show/44D1BC48-3CA4-4F13-A66E-B1CD04AA220E'>Read more...</a></p></div>63.47806 -162.03917uuid:CABEE21C-F28D-4662-B08F-3AF2A731701FDying Western Red Cedars2023-09-01T00:00:00Z2024-03-29T15:01:05ZLEO Networkhttp://leonetwork.orgask.leonetwork@gmail.com<div><h3>Langley, British Columbia, British Columbia, Canada</h3><p>September 1, 2023</p><p>Western red cedars in South Langley, BC are dying, with browning starting at the tops during summer and progressing downward until the trees are completely dead.</p><img src='http://leonetwork.org/en/attachments/thumbnail/3CB7106C-A8F7-4409-98BB-F2F1C8C1C5B2'/><p><a href='http://leonetwork.org/posts/show/CABEE21C-F28D-4662-B08F-3AF2A731701F'>Read more...</a></p></div>49.0428684190789 -122.651404738426uuid:F7361480-8E14-44C2-B42A-FED1F3D9AED4Rain continues to impact Noatak River2023-08-29T00:00:00Z2024-03-29T15:01:05ZLEO Networkhttp://leonetwork.orgask.leonetwork@gmail.com<div><h3>Noatak, Alaska, United States</h3><p>August 29, 2023</p><p>Heavy rains have elevated river levels throughout August and September.
