Hunting and Fishing Groups Join War On Global Warming
By Ken Moran, New York Post
Hunting and fishing organizations from all 50 states are urging their senators and representatives to target global warming with strong climate legislation.
"America's sportsmen have a special connection to the outdoors, and for that reason we are on the front lines of global warming," said Larry Schweiger, National Wildlife Federation's president and CEO. "It has been impossible to ignore the changes happening before our eyes. You don't need to be a scientist to feel that something is seriously wrong."
Over 670 hunting and fishing organizations, representing the millions of Americans who share America's sporting tradition, are calling for climate change legislation that cuts global warming by two percent a year through a cap-and-trade system and want dedicated funding for fish and wildlife conservation and restoration.
