Help Protect America's Wetlands
Target: The President of the United States
Sponsored by: The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership
Sponsored by: The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership
Our nation's wetlands, streams and other waters have a tremendous impact on everyone's lives. But development and draining of these areas result in the loss of an average of 80,000 acres of wetlands each year.
That is why we need 80,000 people to let the President know how important wetlands are to us. Parents want clean drinking water for their children. Families want to live without fear of their homes being flooded. Sportsmen want to protect habitat for fish and wildlife and enjoy the opportunities to hunt and fish.
Wetlands provide all these things and more. Tell the President we need to protect these areas for our future. Sign the petition today!

Keeping wildlife wild & free...instead of a few specimens locked up in a zoo...Take a walk there, among them. See God's hand at work. Breathe the fresh air...watch you children come alive...Don't destroy that. Once it's gone, it can never be reclaimed.

Please protect the vanishing, endangered wetlands. Many species need wetlands for survival.
# 23,164:
We don't need more development of natural spaces. We need more revitalization of cities and programs to get city dwellers and others out into nature.
