Gore did invent something. Those fires burning in Montana and Wyoming are a direct result of the policy to keep cattle off BLM lands. The bush along the power line right of ways used to be cleared out. Some genius figured out owls like to nest in there and it should be left alone and this is where the fires spread the fastest.

20,000,000 buffalo used to roam this area, early reports by explorers said the trees were trimmed to five feet high of small branches. They described it as "like walking in a park on an estate".

The Saskatchewan and Manitoba governments in conjunction with the Duke of Edinburgh's World Wildlife Fund has now put several million acres of potential forestry, cattle and mining habitat into heritage areas.

No tourists will be allowed to visit these pristine area.

Gore takes his directions from the Duke and the Rio Tinto group of companies.
