Subject: Please make
wildlife protection a priority

Columbia, SC 29201
Dear Governor Haley,
I'm
writing today to ask that you do all you can to support
much-needed
wildlife conservation efforts.
Hundreds of species
are currently in the pipeline for listing decisions
by the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service, and as industries continue to
expand and climate
change increases the frequency of catastrophic fires
and other extreme
weather events, this problem will only get worse.
With these new
threats, the time is ripe for policy that reflects the
latest
developments in science and economics. We now have the ability
to
better quantify impacts to species and habitats, and to trigger
market
mechanisms like habitat exchanges that create net benefit,
ensuring
long-term success.
These policies will protect both the natural
resources that make our
state great, and our economy. It's a win-win,
and I hope that you will
make protecting our wildlife a priority for
your administration.
Thank you,
Ms. Audrey Temelini
