I hear you - but don't agree with you.

The environment will take care of itself - especially in the case of a natural catastrophe. I appreciate your concern - the enrvironment is of grave concern (big picture) to me. Generally speaking - Major (and minor) disturbances encourage diversity in nature - and is good for the environment. Just becasue it might not be pretty (twisted trees, flooded woodlands, etc) does not mean it isn't good in the big picture.

What kind of involment do you suggest for the people sitting on their Arses? Seriously - people in general messing with the environment (unless trained) is not usually a good thing.
