Environmental Commitments:
Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine not only encourages readers to go outside and play, but is actively committed to protecting the places where we play. Our content focuses on protecting public lands, air and water, and our Newswire highlights daily environmental news. In each issue we offer readers the opportunity to act on regional issues of ecological importance, including mountaintop removal mining, air pollution, water use, and forest protection. Our content is always focused on healthy, active, green living and eco-conscious recreation.
But we also practice what we preach. At Blue Ridge Outdoors, we do not accept advertisements from socially or environmentally irresponsible companies. Publisher Blake DeMaso encourages bicycle commuting and telecommuting, and we strictly recycle all unused magazines each month. BRO is active in regional environmental efforts and sponsors several regional conservation efforts and events.
