"To waste, to destroy, our natural resources, to
skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to its usefulness, will
result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we
ought by right to hand down to them amplified and developed."
-- Theodore
Roosevelt, Message to Congress, December 3, 1907
Representatives Clay Shaw (R-FL), John
Tanner (D-TN), Ed Royce (R-CA), and Tom Udall (D-NM) founded the
International Conservation Caucus in September 2003. The Caucus is
committed to helping the United States to lead public and private
international partnerships that provide stewardship of natural resources for
habitat and bio-diversity protection, poverty reduction, economic
development and regional security.
