Emphatically yes. We have already destroyed far too much wetland in this 
country. If anything, we should be trying to bring it back.

I do not understand why you are so gung ho on the idea of making more 
liquid fuel when you know that with hybrid cars, telepresence, and other 
innovations we can reduce the demand for fuel by a factor of two today, and 
by a factor of 10 within a few decades. Why use the energy in the first 
place when it is cheaper, safer, faster and more convenient to *not* use 
it, by employing advanced technology?
