I blame you for not knowing that gay marriage wasn't an issue, that global warming wasn't an issue, and that TR was an environmentalist.

President Theodore Roosevelt made conservation a central policy issue of his administration, creating national parks, wildlife and bird refuges, and the National Forest Service. He appointed an Inland Waterways Commission to investigate the condition of the nation's navigable waterways and to recommend measures for their protection and improvement. A rancher, big-game hunter, camper, and amateur entomologist, Roosevelt came to the presidency both well-schooled and disposed to protect the natural heritage of the nation. He advocated for the sustainable use of the nation's natural resources, the protection and management of wild game, and the preservation of wild spaces. In 1908, he called the governors of all the states to the White House Conference on Conservation, now regarded as the beginning of a true national conservation movement. Perhaps the greatest legacy of Roosevelt's efforts was his emphasis on conservation as an element of democracy: the resources of the public domain were to be used for the benefit of all people. It is fitting to have a professorship in ecosystem management named after President Roosevelt who did so much to invigorate and set the direction for the conservation movement in the United States.
