Mike has spent the last three years leading and developing the CoolPath team and rangeland ecological restoration project. In partnership with Agromin, the largest producer of compost in California, the project is based on large-scale compost application along with other regenerative practices, financed by verified, high-integrity nature-based carbon credits. He and his partners have helped guide the pioneering project to submission for initial registration as “Under Validation” with VERRA, one of the world’s leading voluntary carbon registries. Mr. Powers is passionate about fulfilling the mission of CoolPath to achieve ecological restoration while reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a sustainable business model and strong partnerships. Prior to his work with CoolPath, Mr. Powers served as County Executive Officer for 11 years, capping off a 30-year career of service with the County of Ventura.

Does uneven enforcement weaken a traveler's duty to follow the rule?
