This is a question from one of our listeners, Andrew:
“How do libertarians deal with Wildlife Conservation?”
Hello, I am a regular listener of the libertarian Christian podcast, and I heard you take questions on the faith seeking freedom podcast. My question is this: how does libertarianism deal with the issue of wildlife and wildland conservation? It seems to me, if it weren’t for government regulations, a lot of our precious wildlife and wildlands would be gone. How would the “sell the federal land” shtick help conservation? Aldo Leopold wrote a beautiful, thoughtful book on conservation titled “A Sand County Almanac”. If you need this question to tie into Christianity, well then clearly we are to have dominion and stewardship of the planet. Thanks for all you do for liberty!
