So I mean you no animosity, I know you’re human and rely on this place along with thousands of other people, but I am vehemently against the dam and believe in returning the Colorado River to its original state without dams. Do you see a middle ground along the Colorado River within the American West? What amount of dams can we justify knowing the ecological impacts of dams in the area? Can we justify the Glen Canyon Dam knowing how much water evaporates and seeps from Lake Powell every year while areas that rely upon the Colorado River are constantly in water shortages? If the cities and people that rely upon the nearby dams were provided a cleaner and more environmentally friendly energy source, what are your thoughts on the dam’s removal? Also, just curious, what are your thoughts on Edward Abbey? I know that loads of people within the NPS find Abbey inspirational despite the fact that Abbey would probably not find their roles attractive. Thank you!
