“feds will make more money off hunting and recreation in roadless areas”
“opening it to logging”
The comment
I am writing to oppose ending the roadless rule. I live near the GMUG National Forest in Western Colorado. I have experienced many wildfire seasons. In 2020, I started wearing a mask as needed. I recently learned that wildfire smoke picks up many more toxins that make us sick, so I continue to wear a mask as needed.
There are already laws on the books that let roads be built in roadless areas as needed to prevent wildfires, so that excuse doesn't work! And the feds will make more money off hunting and recreation in roadless areas than opening it to logging. None of the lame excuses to opening the roadless area hold any water!
PLEASE let the trees stand. They create the AIR that we all breathe!!!!
Thank you,
