We're reserving these lands for war — how about reserving some for climate resilience instead?

Extending military land grabs in the name of 'readiness' sounds like a sequel nobody asked for.

Military readiness matters, but shouldn’t we balance it with public access and environmental care?

25 more years of shutting out nature? How about opening up those lands for the public, not just war games.
