It hurts me to my heart and soul to see how Trump is dismantling the protections of our environment against drilling, mining and other actions which would do immeasurable harm. Does he not want clean air, water and the preservation of the pristine beauty of nature? Silly me. Gold mines of corporate profits over the health and well-being of humanity trumps all.

The Trump administration’s plan to shrink four land-based national monuments has provoked howls of anguish from environmental groups, Native American tribes and some businesses, such as the outdoors company Patagonia. Accompanying changes to protected monuments in the oceans – vastly larger areas than their land-based counterparts – have received less attention, but could have major consequences for the livelihoods and ecosystems dependent upon the marine environment.
Ryan Zinke, the secretary of the interior, has recommended to Donald Trump that three sprawling marine monuments, one in the Atlantic and two in the Pacific, be either opened up to the commercial fishing industry or reduced in size, or both.
