>go to nature reserve>place is actually an old farmstead from 20+ years ago>meadow is an old overgrown field>wetland is a pond created when a small stream was dammed>forest has an open canopy and diverse understory because it was regularly thinnedWhen will we get finally over this whole "REEEE LEAVE NO TRACE!!!" shit? None of these habitats would have existed without prior human modification, otherwise the area would be mediocre overgrown woodland that we already have everywhere and supports less species. It's clear that we are able to make positive changes to the local ecosystem so why aren't we doing it more. The idea that nature is hecking perfect and we have to leave it alone is just agencies sounding virtuous while they sit on their asses doing nothing and wasting our tax dollars. That's why I don't really give a shit if their funding is being cut.
>>2870856Leave No Trace has nothing to do with how agencies or local gov or whatever manage land. Its just a campaign by a nonprofit of the same name to get visitors to high traffic areas of public land to not fuck shit up. It has nothing to do with arguments about developing or not developing natural resources for recreation.
>>2870856I think uninterrupted nature is pretty cool too
>>2870856So....you shit in the parking lot and left a pile of garbage for everyone to enjoy?
>>2870862needs more beavers
>>2870856Well for one, it's because it's hard to plan for the proper result without running into some far reaching and horrific oversight. Ecosystems are very complicated. Besides that, the first post got it right and that's not even what Leave No Trace is about.
>meadow is an old overgrown fieldYou don't know shit about either the land or farming.
>>2871337>plants will naturally colonize bare ground through seeds blown on wind or stuck in animal furWow what a conceptUnless you're one of those neurotic fags who think it needs to be 100% precolonial flora for it to count as a meadow
>>2870858This. OP sucks cock, as usual.
>>2870856>It's clear that we are able to make positive changes to the local ecosystem so why aren't we doing it more.Because changes that help first need to be planned out so we don't fuck things up instead (Like>>2870895 pointed out.) and they cost money/volunteer time which could have been used cleaning up the traces dumb fucks leave behind.I mean, I like the reclaimed ascetic more than most people on here but you're obviously stupid or trolling.
There is no primeval forest or land untouched by man but that isn't what leave no trace means you zero IQ fag
>>2870856USA is a joke, you really call shit like this nature reserves?
>>2871964lol, imagine being this o b s e s s e d
>>2871964There are some reasons to dislike the USA but lack of good nature is definitely not one of them. Op pic is better than entire nature of Netherlands.
the human managed ecosystem is superior. we are the stewards of nature.
>>2872011>we are the stewards of naturelol
>>2872016>p-p-please get mad!hah, no.
>>2872016>In the late 19th century (when the photo was taken in 1892), Michigan's industrial and mining centers were primarily staffed by immigrants from Western and Northern EuropeWhoops

>>2870856Reclaimed land is a miracle fuckwad, Stop whining and leave no trace for 50 more fucking years, otherwise just level it and have a jew build suburbs since you hate nature so much anyway.

>>2870856Good morning saar.
