When the Trump administration reversed the designation of National Monument lands in Utah, some on this Forum said:” Oh it is not so bad”.
When the Trump administration said they would open oil exploration in the ANWR, some on this Forum said: “Oh it is not so bad”
When the Trump administration pushed to allow coal ash to be dumped in river basins, some on this Forum said “Oh it is not so bad”
When the Trump administration pushed for opening up the Tongass Nationl Forest to clear cut logging and road building, some on this Forum said “Oh it is not so bad”
When the Trump administration sought to roll back protections for endangered species like the Sage Grouse, some on this Forum said: “Oh it is not so bad”
Let’s get one thing straight; YES, IT IS SO BAD.
This administration of money grubbers, robber barons and extraction industry lobbyists are interested in only one thing with our public lands: to monetize and consume every square inch for their profit.
Sportsmen and sportswomen can not afford to rationalize and excuse this administrations behavior and policies. All public land users and lovers of the outdoors must fight back. Call your Congressional leaders, give money to groups like BHA, get involved and above all vote public lands in November.
Let there be no doubt that the assault on our public lands continues: from today’s national news headlines:
THE NEW YOUR TIMES: Trump Moves to Exempt Big Projects From Environmental Review
WASHINGTON — The White House on Thursday will introduce the first major changes to the nation’s benchmark environmental protection law in more than three decades, moving to ease approval of pipelines and other major energy and infrastructure projects without detailed environmental review.
THE WASHINGTON POST: White House wants to change environmental rules to speed up highway projects, pipelines and more
The White House is moving to exempt projects without significant federal funding from environmental reviews that have been required for 50 years, a major shift that would make it easier to build mines, expand airports and lay pipelines, among other things, according to three people familiar with the proposal.
USA TODAY: Trump to propose environmental changes to allow more construction projects
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump will propose changes to the nation's landmark environmental law Thursday that he says will allow more major construction projects, but which critics say threaten to worsen climate change.
The proposals – which will surely be challenged in court – come just a week after the government marked the 50th anniversary of the National Environmental Policy Act.
Cheers,
