WEATHERING THE STORM: FINDING SAFE HARBORS IN ESA CONTROVERSY
Abstract
This Note argues the ESA is not as beneficial to conservation as some may suppose. In addition, other laws may be more capable of bridging the intellectual, and perhaps even moral, gap between conservationists and economic interests. Better, and less litigious, ways exist to protect the environment and the human environments that surround it. This Note will discuss why the ESA is not the best method to conserve species in decline, such as the sage-grouse, and that other legal means-such as the 2008 Farm Bill and candidate conservation agreements with assurances-can more effectively meet the needs of both conservationists and economic interests.
