I am firmly in support of taking measures to protect endangered species. Humans should not be the agents of doom for other species on our planet.

The objectives listed for this review of the endangered species act are very clearly at odds with each other.
How can endangered and sensitive species be protected while reducing the barriers to development?

Bulldozing wetlands, fields and forests to clear the way for buildings, roads, parking lots, bridges and interchanges cannot possibly improve conditions for endangered species.

The objectives need to be re-written to take out any reference to facilitating economic development. When we destroy parts of the web of environment for other creatures, eventually we will destroy the web that supports our lives.
