Robin Grossinger was quoted for an article in the September-October issue of Alameda Magazine title, Dumping Grounds: Mount Trashmore and Kindred Bayside Landfills are the Parks of the Future. His quote was: "There’s a concept in ecology called the ‘shifting baseline,’ ” notes Robin Grossinger, a senior scientist with the San Francisco Estuary Institute. “Each generation accepts a greatly reduced idea of what their ecosystem should be, because they don’t know what used to be there.”
