    The conservation of natural resources is the fundamental problem. Unless we solve that problem it will avail us little to solve all others.
    — Theodore Roosevelt

    Conservation means development as much as it does protection. I recognize the right and duty of this generation to develop and use the natural resources of our land; but I do not recognize the right to waste them, or to rob, by wasteful use, the generations that come after us.
