THE
WILDLANDS PROJECT
Step
by step, piece by piece, the Wildlands Project is coming to fruition.
The Project, foundational to the U.N.Biodiversity Treaty which was never
ratified by the U.S. Senate, calls for approximately 50 percent of the
United States to be set aside as "wildlands", where no human
can enter. Much has been accomplished over the past 10 years toward
that goal, and the pace is stepping up, with the help of the federal agencies
under Clinton/Gore.
Here is the North American wildlife corridor map:

"The Wildlands Project’s work to reconnect
the continent begins with "MegaLinkages"—vast pathways
that tie natural places together. Each MegaLinkage is made up of
regional "Wildlands Networks." Within the Spine of the
Continent MegaLinkage, six Wildlands Networks have been proposed,
and within these networks, the Wildlands Project has launched a
campaign to protect "Endangered Linkages"—the critical
connection within each network that is most threatened."
