Biden 30x30

#1

The Biden 30x30 plan is historic. It officially closes the American myth of endless wilderness, explicitly rejecting the preservation of public lands in the United States in favor of "conservation" and "working landscapes" which include industrial mining, energy, grazing and recreation.

"Notably, the President’s challenge specifically emphasizes the notion of “conservation” of the nation’s natural resources (rather than the related but different concept of “protection” or “preservation”) recognizing that many uses of our lands and waters, including of working lands, can be consistent with the long-term health and sustainability of natural
systems."


IMV, the climate and species extinction need preservation of natural landscapes, the flora and fauna rights to existence and solace from the crush of humanity's conservation.

It's notable that no enviro.org has lamented the passing of the "frontier" and instead continue to parse conservation.

So, to soothe my soul, I made something visual.

Conservation is what conservation does and it sure ain't preservation.
