It is one thing to hear about the forest and the river, but an entirely other experience to go there, to see the environment, and to appreciate the natural riches there first-hand.

We made a good start toward preserving recreational areas like the Chattahoochee River.

I have long been active in and supportive of conservation and historical preservation causes.

We've got to step up our conservation efforts before it's too late. We're not protecting our lands and natural resources. Take the Grand Canyon for example; I'm sure that at one time it was a beautiful piece of land, and just look at the way we've let it go.

I've already made a substantial commitment to wildlife by putting my land in the easement. It won't be developed. It will remain there in perpetuity - will be there for the wildlife.

I think we all share a view about wanting to make sure we have a healthy river and we're looking forward to the plan and in the lead-up to that we've agreed to speak again.

As a Republican, I am proud of my party's rich legacy of conservation.

I've been working with the land for most of my life; walking it and photographing it. And I love it to bits.

The Yellowstone river is a beautiful river to navigate.
