The vice president of government affairs with the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association says a report released by the House Select Committee on Climate Crisis is the product of partisan discussions.
Ethan Lane says the report fell into
old narratives about protection of land and protection of wildlife instead of
active management in conservation.
“When you’re talking about a topic that’s as contentious as climate change, you want to make sure there’s a real balanced, bipartisan panel looking into it because if you don’t, you end up with this old battle lines being drawn and you don’t get anywhere,” he says.
