The comment

The Roadless Rule has been in place since 2001 for very good reason. The 58 million acres of untrammeled wilderness which is protected by this Regulation will immediately fall under threat of logging & mining interests if removed from the Federal Register. The climate crisis is already past a tipping point. We need those trees. The wildlife needs those areas to remain wild. The current US administration, under Trump, has made its intentions clear when it comes to removing environmental protections: drill, cut, profit. The removal of Roadless goes against the preservation of life on this planet, and goes against the will of all Sovereign Nations who inhabit the areas surrounding those which are currently protected under roadless. We need to listen to the Tribes, Scientists, and Environmental Advocacy groups and keep these areas Roadless under the Federal Register. Please don't make a huge mistake which cannot be undone. The Ambler Road has already been approved by Trump, and that ONLY benefits the Ambler mine. The environmental impacts of this road construction have been well-studied and fought against by local and national groups for years already. One swipe of the pen by those who have not been to these areas and do not understand the implications of the removal of their Roadless protections is all it takes to set us back even further in our efforts to preserve Public Lands, Wild Places, and a chance at our own survival in an environment of extreme human-induced Global Climate Change crisis. Please preserve the Roadless Rule under the Federal Register. Let the corporations find other ways to profit than by attacking the last remaining great wild places on Earth.

Keep learning. Keep speaking up.The Roadless Rule depends on public engagement. Share what you've learned.
