Interesting article today in the NY Times about the Republican communicatons strategy towards environmental issues. Not trying to stir up a hornets nest here. National environmental policy is certainly an important issue relating to the AT. One doesn't hike the ridges in the Smokys, or the ridge north of Palmerton, PA without realizing the human impact on our environment.

I particularly like the following quote from the article;
... "Winning the Global Warming Debate," asserts that many voters believe there is a lack of consensus about global warming among scientists. "Should the public come to believe that the scientific issues are settled, their views about global warming will change accordingly," it says. "Therefore you need to continue to make the lack of scientific certainty a primary issue."
Interesting, eh..
