I just can’t seem to get enough… Nature comes out with a fair and balanced editorial about the Endangered Species Act. Key quotes: “[Interior Secretary Kempthorne's] latest efforts to alter the act are neither benign nor bipartisan,” but at the same time “when it comes to habitat loss in general — the biggest threat — the act is quite constrained. Although protecting ‘indicator’ or ‘keystone’ species can bring about broader habitat protection that benefits other species, this the approach is still, at its core, purely reactive.”

…and the Ecological Society of America piles on.
