[Green] Fwd: [MOVClimateAction] VERY IMPORTANT COMMENT OPPORTUNITY!!!!!

[Vic Elam]

I put some comments together and sent in as well.  I had difficulty finding
where to submit on the ODNR website and just sent it through the OVEC
website comment facilitator.  I did a cost benefit analysis and frankly
struggled to come up with anything to put for benefits.

When the Earth, its products, its creatures become his concern, man is
caught up in a cause greater than his own life and more meaningful. Only
when man loses himself in an endeavor of that magnitude does he walk and
live with humility and reverence.   - William O. Douglas
