WASHINGTON, DC – Carole King was recently interviewed by David Mark, Senior Editor of Politico, in a piece entitled "A Natural Environmentalist", which talks about Carole's role as environmental activist, and her ongoing advocacy of the Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection Act (NREPA). She discussed what influences led her to seek to conserve wilderness in her home state of Idaho (as well as four other states - Montana, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming). There is also optimism in her words, now that the Obama Administration is making the preservation of the environment a high priority.
