How the Trump administration is shaping the future of America's public lands

Описание: The Trump administration is responsible for the largest reduction of federally protected land in U.S. history, according to a recent study by the journal Science. And in the wide expanses of the American West, Trump's encouragement of industry and development has conservation advocates concerned for the future of public lands intended for varied use. Jeffrey Brown reports from central Montana.

Correction: This story mentions the Bureau of Land Management’s plans to move its headquarters from Washington, D.C., to Grand Junction, Colorado. While most of the staff will, in fact, be relocated from Washington, many will be scattered in Western states, not just Grand Junction.
