Please keep our public lands wild. Rescinding the roadless rule would tarnish the small amount of wild land our country has left.
I live near Sierra National Forest, and I enjoy using the public lands for hiking. If the government rescinds the roadless rule, the scenery of my hikes would suffer, but that is nothing compared to the harm it would do to the habitats of the animals that live there.
“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” Rescinding the roadless rule is in direct conflict with this proverb. More roads and more logging isn’t the right answer here.
