* This Foundation information ended up on this blog because it showed up in the benefactor list of "The Center for Ethics and Toxics" (CETOS), along with the "Ecological Rights Foundation" and "Californians for Alternatives to Toxics" (CATS) - when I started looking into the establishment of Humboldt Baykeeper and discovered that it was birthed by the Ecological Rights Foundation, who had "commissioned" a study from CETOS that aided them in their lawsuit against Sierra Pacific Industries (SPI) - the funds from that suit appear to have been used in part to launch Baykeeper, another predatory litigious "org" - ERF paid for, among other things, a new Boston Whaler for Baykeeper, and the results of ERF's "commissioned study" have reportedly just been used in Baykeeper's efforts to get Humboldt Bay listed as polluted.
I thank activistcash.com for their work. It isn't easy following all these incestuous trails.
