The comment
Please do not rescind the roadless rule! At some point, it will be too late to have any areas where intact ecosystems can thrive. When this happens what we lose is irreplaceable. Future generations we look back upon us with disgust at how little foresight we had. Make no mistake, rescinding these rules would allow roads and with roads will come destruction of vital habit for all the creatures that I for one marvel from grizzly bears to tiny song birds.
The reality is we should be adding to the roadless areas to create connectivity. Please, I urge you, do not rescind the roadless area conservation rule.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
