The comment

To the US Forest Service and the Department of Agriculture, I strongly object to any and all efforts to rescind the Roadless Rule and/or to remove any national forests from the protection that the Roadless Rule provides. Not only are these efforts spectacularly irresponsible and short-sighted, but they are neither in the public interest nor morally acceptable. I see the trees changing colors in the White Mountain National Forest of New Hampshire and my heart sings. Surely, our nation can afford to leave these remaining wilderness areas as God and Nature created them. Katrin Rouner North Sandwich, New Hampshire
