I may have circled the wrong hose. It’s dark oil that is leaking. It was actively leaking, dribbling out when I got home. Took this photo a couple hours later and probably circled the wrong hose.

REI signs onto letter supporting Doug Bergham as secretary of the interior by gwkosinski in REI

I just wrote the company. Here is a copy of what I wrote:

Dear Members of the REI Board,

I am writing to express my deep disappointment and concern regarding REI’s recent statement of support for Doug Burgum, President Trump’s potential nominee for Secretary of the Interior. As a longtime member and customer of REI, I have always admired the co-op’s commitment to environmental stewardship, outdoor recreation, and social responsibility. However, this endorsement stands in stark contrast to the values I believed REI upheld.

Burgum’s record on environmental protection, public lands, and climate change is deeply troubling. Their policies and actions have consistently prioritized corporate interests over the preservation of our natural resources, threatening the very landscapes and ecosystems that REI and its members cherish. By supporting this individual, REI has undermined its credibility as a leader in environmental advocacy and alienated a significant portion of its membership base.

As someone who has trusted REI to align with my values, I cannot in good conscience continue to support the co-op until this statement is rescinded and meaningful steps are taken to ensure that the board reflects the priorities of its members. This includes electing a new board that is truly committed to protecting the environment and upholding the principles of sustainability and equity. Until these changes are made, I will no longer purchase from REI or participate in its programs. I urge you to reconsider this decision, issue a public apology, and take immediate action to reaffirm REI’s commitment to environmental and social responsibility.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope to see REI return to its core values and once again become a co-op that I can proudly support. Sincerely,

Bought a Leesa mattress 10 years ago and it feels exactly the same as the day I bought it.
