This has a long history. They did RARE I and II and that was supposed to be it, period. Then Clinton, in his last hours, came up with this new proposal for more "Roadless Areas." I remember attending the hearings and our local Forest knew such little detail over the rushed proposal that it couldn't even tell us where they were proposed to be. When they finaly came out, they weren't true "roadless" areas and had been gerrymandered to fit on either sides of roads and ignore roads and all sorts of contrived configurations.
In an area already exposed to severe fire conditions, the "roadless" rule was insane. It cut off wide areas from access.
Any homes or condos or co-ops that contain any wood these jerks own or live in should be confiscated and they can all live in some 3rd world jungle paradise.
Ditto for their vehicles.
President GW Bush drives a propane fuel converted Ford PU and has a Texas stone-walled ranchhouse to take advantage of passive solar heating.
He also has a deep well recirculated water heat pump for heating and cooling, recyles and filters his house "grey water" into sumps for irrigating grass and plants and trees and planted grass that is enviro-friendly.
Ranchers and farmers and miners and fisherman and forestry folks are the true environmental stewards of our world and liberals and radical fakeroo ENVIRO-NUTZIES use their lumber, veggies, meat, fuels, vehicles every day and cannot survive without them.
What has John Kerry done in his many mega-million dollar Heinz-57 mansions?
