For every action taken there are consequences. Yesterday, and I’m sure more days to come, we in north central Idaho will be experiencing
the consequences…POOR LAND MANAGEMENT!
As you can tell by the pictures the air quality isn’t good.
At harvest time there is dust in the air, usually in the evening but by morning
it is cleared out. Not the case with wildfire smoke being held in by a weather
system change.
The cause for the smoke…lighting activated fires in public
lands. The same public lands that are poorly mismanaged by environmental
activist driven liberal policies whose demographics are in the rural regions of L.A., San Francisco, New York City, Chicago, Boston, etc.
Are you getting the picture or is it too smoky to see
through?
For years the environmental activist organizations and
zealots have preyed on the emotions of city folk to “have passion for mother
earth and care for the land” by sending a $10 or more donation to stop
logging.
And Liberal lawmakers like Diane Feinstein are leading the
charge. I wonder if she is out camping in a tent in our area to experience the
fruits of her labor?
By not allowing logging to take place on public lands to
remove dead trees, make clearings to help stop fires, and to manage the land has
made for one heck of a fuel supply that we are inhaling and will be for weeks.
Senator Dianne Feinstein and her Husband Richard Blum have purchased a new home for 16.5 Million at the corner of Lyon and Vallejo st in San Francisco. |
I’m sure that Senator Feinstein, her cronies in Congress,
and the liberals and activists that support these poor policies make sure that
their yards are watered and beautiful. I’m sure that after the lawn is mowed
and weeds are pulled the refuse doesn’t just stay there. Why is my back yard any different?
Why should public lands be any different? Why can’t our
government utilize the sale of the trees to help take some pressure off of us
tax payers in more ways than one?
The answer is definitely clearer than the smoke invested
air I am seeing and breathing…BIG MONEY!
Over $2 trillion is spent annually worldwide on environmental
activism. Do you think these bloated back east elected officials care about me
and my family in a town of 369 people in north central Idaho? Or do you think
they care about the bundles of dollars their rich activist friends with
townhouses in Manhattan think?
Not only do we need to clear the air on this issue, but we
need to clean house. We need better policies that actually work regarding public
land management. We need common sense policies instead of the kind driven by
activist monies.
I’m sure that there is concern on the other side’s part to
care for the environment and those that live in it…just not us humans that pay
their way. Maybe if I was a three horned snail darter or painted lady toad strangler
they would pay attention to my plea. It's down right unAmerican!
