From the artical:
“The Lightbulb: I was at a workshop in Tucson and climbed a mountain near the Mexico border. You could look south over an open, parched landscape. I imagined what it would be like as an animal trying to find food and a mate and a place to rear its young. I could see where the border wall will reverse decades of conservation effort in the Southwest.”
I live near Tucson. When I climb a mountain and look around I see tons of trash, rampant destruction of flora, erosion from years of illegal aliens and vehicles carving their own trails through what should be pristine wilderness. The conservation areas are burned out barren dirt. Wildlife or what remains of it are subject to year round poaching. The Jags have disappeared because of illegal aliens destroying the ecosystem, NOT due to threats of an UNBUILT fence.
Best summary of the situation I’ve ever read. Building a fence would do wonders to clean up the ecological disaster wrought by open borders and all the trash which accompanies it.
