BEHIND THE GREEN MASK

Rosa Koire was a retired forensic commercial real estate appraiser specializing in eminent domain valuation.  Her twenty-eight year career with the California Department of Transportation (District Branch Chief) as an expert witness on land use culminated in exposing the impacts of Sustainable Development on private property rights and individual liberty.

In 2005 she was elected to a citizens’ oversight committee in Santa Rosa, Northern California, to review a proposed 1,300 acre redevelopment project in which 10,000 people live and work.  Her research into the documents justifying the plans led her, with her partner Kay Tokerud, to challenge the fraudulent basis for the huge Gateways Redevelopment Project.  The City, in an attempt to block Koire from exposing the project, removed the neighborhood in which Koire and Tokerud’s properties were located from the redevelopment area.

Koire and Tokerud fought on, however, not wanting to abandon the thousands of business and property owners still in the area. They formed a business and property owners association and a non-profit organization (Concerned Citizens of Santa Rosa Against Redevelopment Law Abuse) and were able to raise nearly $500,000 in donations and pro bono legal work to sue the City of Santa Rosa to stop the project.

Post Sustainability Institute
Democrats Against UN Agenda 21

Over the course of the legal challenge Rosa Koire became aware of the source of the planning revolution she had observed over more than 10 years:  UN Agenda 21.  Through her research she found that much of the funding to implement local UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development land use programs comes through the diversion of property taxes to redevelopment agencies.

Her work in providing information and solutions for communities fighting UN Agenda 21 has spread across the nation as more and more people become aware of the increased restrictions on their property rights, and the methods used to implement social engineering.

Through her website www.DemocratsAgainstUNAgenda21.com and her grassroots tactical organization, Santa Rosa Neighborhood Coalition, she, with other community leaders, has enabled activists on many seemingly unconnected issues to come together and fight the source: UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development.

In 2010 the non-profit organization she and her partner founded was expanded in scope and renamed The Post Sustainability Institute. Rosa spoke internationally on UN Agenda 21, blogged regularly on the Democrats website, and is the author of BEHIND THE GREEN MASK: UN Agenda 21.

Change in book sales

I (Kay Tokerud) will be traveling. I am not able to fulfill book orders. If you want to buy a copy of Behind the Green Mask by Rosa Koire, please do so from Amazon. We are sad to announce that​ Rosa Koire passed away May 31, 2021 just 11 days after she was admitted to Kaiser Hospital in Santa Rosa CA due to difficulty breathing. She tested negative for Covid-19. A CAT scan showed that she was suffering from a pulmonary embolism and revealed metastatic lung cancer, a big surprise.

She had just recently returned from a long stay at her favorite place in Mexico where she lived part-time for many years. She was so full of life; her sudden passing came as a shock to both friends and family.Rosa received the best of care at the hospital, despite the fact that her illness was too advanced to be treatable. She faced her final days bravely, accepting her terminal condition with grace and courage. The love she exuded was felt by everyone around her.

Before she died, she made peace with God and ensured us all that she would be fine.If you ever met her, or watched one of her videos, you know that Rosa was extraordinary. This was especially evident in her dedication to researching and uncovering public policies intended to strip people of our individual rights. In 2011 she published her popular book “Behind the Green Mask, UN Agenda 21”. Subsequently she traveled extensively, both in the US and abroad, speaking and giving interviews. Rosa was a great humanitarian whose words and charisma touched and inspired many people.

She is survived by her life partner and wife, Kay Tokerud, and brother Steven Koire, his wife Linda and their 3 children.

I lived and traveled with Rosa for almost 30 years. We were blessed with a good life, filled with amazing adventures. She introduced me to the beauty of Mexico, particularly Yelapa and San Miguel de Allende, where we owned a home. Rosa spoke fluent Spanish, of course. I know all of us will miss her greatly, and will attempt to continue her work while we still can. My sincere thanks to all who supported her.

God bless Rosa. Sincerely, Kay

As a tribute to her life and work, all of Rosa’s websites will be maintained.
Her book will continue to be published and will be sold at Amazon.com.
