If that isn't a responsibility for environmental stewardship, I don't know what would be.Yes, we are to take care of what God has given us. But I doubt that God would say to put farmers out of business in order to raise the water level a little bit in a lake so some fishies can live more comfortably. (I'm hoping that was not the kind of environmental stewardship you meant.)

We have to design systems suchy that market forces justly determine which property owners stay in the farming business versus which people go into the fisery habitat because that is what the market demands. Sometimes the same property owner would surely do both.
Designing, prototyping, and implementing such systems is what I do.
