At State Level , G.O.P. Seeks Big Environmental Cutbacks


I found this article particularly upsetting because one of the biggest cuts proposed was by Florida Governor Rick Scott. Apparently eliminating millions of dollars for land conservation, taking 17- 50 million dollars away from everglades restoration thus the loss of hundreds of jobs is a great way to stimulate our sunshine state economy. When most of our revenue comes from tourists who want to experience Florida wildlife, wouldn't you think it would be something worth investing in?
