Our parks and wildlife refuges are in danger

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17634561/from/ET/

Many of the nations parks and refuges are not receiving the funding that they need, and will begin to see increased cuts in staff and maintenance.  Bad things happen to natural places when they are not monitored.  Increased poaching, illegal dumping, and vandalism are just a few examples. These cuts will be seen in Florida as well.

Send an email to Governor Crist letting him know that you feel this is unacceptable in Florida and in the rest of the country.  Governor Christ is proving himself to be a strong advocate for the environment thus far.
