I'll come back to the comment about science, and from my perspective, an investment in science and stressing the importance of science-based conservation decisions. I will use an example from epidemiology, my discipline. John Snow didn't know why he was breaking the handle off the water pump when he stopped the London cholera outbreak in 1854, but he had enough knowledge and information to understand that if he broke the handle, he would stop the cholera outbreak.
I'm not saying we should use science to paralyze us, but we need to use the best science we have to be able to make the best decisions that will lead to long-term sustainability of our ecosystems and the protection of wildlife.
