Now, before I jump in and call Dubya names over this.. It says "voluntary"
Is this the kind of "voluntary" where you get tossed in the klink for killing an endangered salamander in your own backyard or is it a legitimate, bona-fied kinda "voluntary" agreement..

Speaking from experience in the area of wetlands protection , I can tell you that this Act will have horrible consequences. Your land will no longer be your land.

I am amazed at the responses here. Wetlands are extremley crucial. Not to the exent of extremism. But make no mistake. Wetlands [water/land transition], are the kidneys and liver of this planet. We need them.
Our federal and state waterfowl refuges are prime examples of what is possible under conservative stewadship.
Literally Millions of acres of prime wetland habitat is in the stewadship of duck clubs. I have seen the feds and the duck clubs work together in California. The Sutter Butte area of the Central Valley is some of the finest duck hunting on the planet.
The "Sink" [Butte Sink] thrives under a consortium of cooperation between the Feds, the DFG, Clubs, Scientists, Farmers, and locals...
Not to mention the marquis joint use refuges: Sacramento, Delevan, Colusa, Grey Lodge, Sutter...
The Feds have done good for the Pacific Flyway IMHO

But, to the subject of the thread...
Reagan, Clinton, Bush...it doesn't matter. They're all just the latest in a long line of successors kowtowing to globally aspiring adherents...
The World Heritage Convention: 30 Years Old and Going StrongNot only is the Convention a vital instrument for concrete action in preserving threatened sites and endangered ecosystems, it also enshrines what US environmentalist Russell Train, founding director of the World Wildlife Fund, called the simple and yet revolutionary concept that throughout the world there exist natural and cultural areas of such unique value that they truly are part of the heritage, not only of individual nations, but of all mankind. Writing in the Conventions inaugural year, Train added: It is an idea which gives eloquent expression through cooperative international action to the truth that the Earth is indeed mans home and belongs to us all.Snip...
The idea of creating an international movement for protecting the shared heritage of the world emerged after World War I in the work of the League of Nations. An international conference held in Athens in 1931 resulted in the first major initiative to stimulate international debate and cooperation on conservation issues, the Athens Charter. The next milestone came after World War II, with a treaty aimed at preventing the destruction of heritage in times of war. The Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, also known as the Hague Convention, was adopted in May 1954."Conservation is by definition a long-term mission. We dont do it for a year or two,
we do it forever." World Heritage Centre Director Francesco Bandarin (something about a boot and a face come to mind...)
It all goes back to the UN!

"And now, a Republican administration will continue and complete the work of a Democratic administration. This is the way environmental policy should work." George W. Bush Amen, Brother hood.
