I live near the San Bernardino National Forest and have visited other forests throughout other states like Idaho and Arizona. The preservation of these lands is personally important to me, and all should value the beauty of our natural landscapes. If this rule is rescinded the destruction of priceless wild lands will become essentially inevitable. The enrichment of a small percentage of individuals is not worth the ability for us and all future generations to enjoy our natural environments. Think of how older generations today and when you were a child lament on what once was but can never return. That phenomena will be expounded by orders of magnitude if the little preserved land we have left loses that status. Nature is bigger and more important than any of our material needs.
