Nixon Nonpolicy On Land Scored By Sierra Club
The Sierra Club criticized the Nixon administration for a nonpolicy in conservation urging Congress to educate the new administration. Dr. Edgar Wayburn said the environment has a growing credibility gap and that funds for land and water conservation were cut from Johnson’s request, leaving insufficient money for parkland acquisition. He noted $124 million requested for park purposes versus $76 million uncommitted.
