Where to get Utah environmental news

Here are some good sources for Utah environmental news:

Statewide Newspapers
The Salt Lake Tribune
www.sltrib.com

The Deseret News
www.desnews.com

Local Newspapers
The Daily Herald
www.harktheherald.com

Northern County Newspapers
http://www.newutah.com/

Regional Services
Headwaters News
http://www.headwatersnews.org/

State and local newspapers carry environmental news subjects on a sporadic basis. Headwaters news culls items from a variety of sources, but readers will also have to sift through news related to other western states. Local newspapers generally report on environmental stories of local interest. You can also find planning and development news in local newspapers (in my town we have the Pleasant Grove Review). In general, many environmental issues fly under the radar in Utah, possibly because of the perception that there are greater concerns (i.e. moral issues), or possibly because of the demands of the predominant religion (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, often referred to as the Mormon church or the LDS church). Environmental stewardship is taught in this faith. I will post more on this in the future.
