BLM放松了西方各州65M英亩土地的能源规则,引发了对红树林生存的担忧。 BLM loosens energy rules on 65M acres in Western states, sparking concern over sage grouse survival.

土地管理局更新了包括南达科他州在内的八个西方州6,500万英亩土地的土地使用计划,放松了对扩大草根生境的能源开发的限制。 The Bureau of Land Management updated land-use plans for 65 million acres across eight Western states, including South Dakota, easing restrictions on energy development on greater sage grouse habitat. 这些变化与特朗普时代的一项指令一致,消除了环境审查要求和关键的养护保障措施,引起了一些团体的担忧,这些团体警告这一举动威胁到一个物种,自1968年以来其种群已下降了近80%。 The changes, aligned with a Trump-era directive, remove environmental review requirements and key conservation safeguards, sparking concern from groups warning the move threatens a species whose population has declined nearly 80% since 1968. 保护论者认为这些修改会削弱保护, 使关键地区的工业项目得以进行, 并破坏鸟类生存所必需的跨州生境连通性。 Conservationists argue the revisions weaken protections, enable industrial projects in critical areas, and undermine cross-state habitat connectivity essential for the bird’s survival. 《BLM》指出,计划反映了各州的投入和改进的适应管理,但批评者称这些计划是对产业的牺牲。 The BLM says the plans reflect input from states and improved adaptive management, but critics call them a giveaway to industry.
