Wildlife is thriving around Chernobyl because it takes a lot of work and energy to keep the wilderness at bay.
Let off of your defenses and work for 20 years, and it reverts back to wilderness.
Wilderness is *not* the optimum state of being for the planet or for people.
To claim that wilderness is optimum is to claim that people should not exist. That is the true heart of an earth first “environmentalist”.
Thank you. Wilderness requires overseeing but the left scum like sierra club have agenda 21 ongoing, closing roads in the west, overloading predators to get hunters and ranchers to give up.
Kill the wolves. All of them. They are agenda 21 tools brought south from northern Alberta to replace the much smaller and less aggressive timber wolf, now apparently extinct.
Some species are best left extinct. Biodiversity is not my God.
