You think that's stupid? Read what comes before it!

High ozone levels, acid rain, continued underfunding and a proposed road on the north shore of Fontana Lake in North Carolina are combining to endanger the park's future, Kiernan said.

underfunding? Since when do forests need to be funded!?! And how have these trees been surviving millions of years before humans came along to fund them?
