A Good Article About Environmentalists and Conservationists
Don Mallicoat’s column this week in the Ashville Citizen’s Times is a must read and probably one you should clip and save for the next dinner party.
It seems wherever I am and the topic turns towards some outdoor issue there seems to be a few that think these two terms are interchangeable which they are not.
Environmentalists have really tripped my circuit breaker. First, I’m tired of them masquerading as conservationists. They are “preservationists” and there is a difference.
Look it up in the dictionary. Now they are assailing the U.S. Forest Service about a plan to manage land in the southeast for wildlife. In the article, “Conservationists question forest plan’s logging emphasis,” (AC-T, Oct. 1), preservationists contend that nature provides sufficient wildlife habitat without timber harvests on National Forests.
Not allowing the Forest Service to manage the forests for a diverse and healthy forest costs us all. It’s high time we stand up to these environmental wacko’s who through political correctness have handcuffed us on managing and using natural resources.
Cool story brotha. Wish you could have got one, after all the head ache. T.
When you ever enter or exit a national forrest you will see the words on the sign LAND OF MANY USES but to the eco-freaks they want the forests shut off to everyone but themelves and their wealthy providers just like it was a monacrcy but were not a monarcy so SCREW IT SIERRA CLUB and SCREW CAPTIAN PLANET TO
