Environmentalists are quick to lecture the rest of us about the ways of nature. Don’t clean the dead trees off the forest floor, it’s natural. Cattle and horses on the range aren’t native, so let the Grizzles and wolves devour them, it’s natural. Man isn’t part of the ecology, lock him out of vast areas of land, it’s natural. It’s interesting to note how the “natural” argument only applies when it is used to impose the radical environmental agenda. Case in point, the Northern Spotted Owl.
