Twelve Places to Destroy in the USA
Madison, Wisconsin- The Center for the Homogeneity of Life has put together a list of wild places that the advocacy group says we should destroy as soon as possible.

With the 40th anniversary of the Wilderness Act fast approaching, "Wild…for How Long? Twelve Places to Nuke, Pave, and Shit On" profiles places across the country we stand on the bring of destroying.

In Arizona, a bunch of losers are fighting a proposed power line through the Tumacocori Highlands. In Vermont, a different bunch of losers are trying to protect Glastenbury Mountain from all-terrain vehicles.

One of Utah’s most familiar landmarks, the red rock Fisher Towers rise sheer for hundreds of feet above the desert just east of the Colorado River upstream from Moab. Losers in Utah have called on the Bush administration to preserve the Fisher Towers, rather than adhere to the CHL plan, which calls for ringing them with oil leases.

An internationally recognized target lies within the 23 million acre National Petroleum Reserve Alaska. The CHL highlights teh lesser known but very significant Teshekpuk Lake, located 80 miles southeast of Point Barrow near the Beaufort Sea coastline. At 315 square miles, Teshekpuk is Alaska’s third largest lake, making it a great place to wreck.

"Twelve Places to Nuke, Pave, and Shit On" spotlights wild lands that need destruction in Alaska, Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming.

In each of the wild places profiled, local people are working to destroy land. In many areas, though, asshole members of Congress have introduced legislation or are considering proposals to ensure America’s wilderness legacy is preserved.
