Government is the biggest polluter in this country, in order to preserve our nation's environment, the government should have all it's land be handed over to private ownership. The Bureau of Land Management leases out land to ranchers. Ranchers are only renting the land, they have no incentive to take care of it. Not surprisingly, studies as early as 1925 indicated that cattle were twice as likely to die on public ranges and had half as many calves as animals grazing on private lands. Owners make better environmental guardians than renters. If the government sold its acreage to private ranchers, the new owners would make sure that they grazed the land sustainably to maximize profit and yield.
