   @ai6yr What pisses me off about this in addition to the loss of conservation of our public lands:

   Trump relies on conservation easements to create undeveloped buffer properties for which he receives tax benefits.

   Ugh, he's such a corrupt asshat.

   EDIT: Literally used conservation easements in tax fraud.

     AP: Trump administration cancels rule that made conservation a ‘use’ of public lands

     "...The federal government’s vast land holdings are concentrated in Western states including Alaska, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. Since taking office, Trump has pursued a flurry of actions aimed at boosting fossil fuel production from those taxpayer-owned sites. The Republican administration also has sought to sideline some renewable energy projects, claiming they were unfairly subsidized under Biden...."
