Yes we must protect the wetlands esp the inhabitants like the precious manatee, which is being threatened by climate change. Nearly 100 of these gentle creatures have been killed due to climate change. I spent more than a hour talking to a WWF rep trying to find out how I can help the manatees from climate change. I was told to check out their website. I told them that I had, but the only climate change threat on their website was global warming. I wanted to find out how to stop global cooling climate change. (to save the peace loving manatees) the rep had to put me on hold several times before she recomended that I make a contribution to the WWF general fund. Please help save the manatee.

That's funny! You should call the Red Cross next and see if you can contribute to the efforts to fight obesity in Haiti. I bet you'd get a similar response. Please, won't you help save the children?

What? You would choose your vicious polar bears over the gentle manatee!??!?! What the hell is wrong with you? Have you no soul?
>>>Forcing them away from farming operations...
Farming provides neither the high sales tax revenue now property tax revue that industrial and commercial land use provides.
Governments don't like agriculture because the tax base is so low. Of course they want to force out agriculture.

There's a problem we know how to fix!
The DNR here in Iowa is grabbing up land at a fast rate. They are to pay property taxes on the land IF they have any money left at the end of the budget year by law. They never have any money left and so there are a few counties in the NW part of the state that are having major budget issues because of the practice. There are groups who are trying to get laws passed (well more laws actually) that will stop land owners from repairing or replacing bad tile so forcing them away from farming operations.
