American workers.

MAKES AMERICA STRONGER
America’s land and water underpin the American spirit. Investments in outdoor recreation on
public lands and waters earn compounding returns in the form of healthier communities, healthier
economies and healthier people.
More than 100 years ago, President Theodore Roosevelt foresaw the crossroads at which we now stand. He
said, “The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets that it must turn over to the next
generation increased, and not impaired, in value.”
From our national parks to local green spaces, from alpine lakes to transcontinental rivers, America’s outdoor
recreation assets are its citizens’ common trust. Our public lands and waterways belong to every American, and
they are the backbone of our outdoor recreation economy. They hold the promise of prosperity and well-being.
It is as much our responsibility to invest in them as it is our right to enjoy them.
From the smallest rural towns to the most densely packed cities, outdoor recreation powers a vast economic engine
that creates billions in spending and millions of good-paying American jobs. Likewise, it is an underappreciated and
underfunded weapon against crime, poor academic performance and rising health care costs.
We are fortunate to live in a nation of iconic natural beauty, inspiring landscapes and bountiful waters. Going
outdoors to hike, bike, camp, fish, hunt or just walk around the neighborhood orients us to the natural world. In the
outdoors, we come together with friends and family, make lasting memories and find solitude and contemplation.
And a growing body of research shows that being outdoors delivers health benefits that are, in many cases, on
par with pharmaceutical treatments.
By enjoying these places, we invest in our own well-being and affirm our shared history. In challenging times,
when disagreements appear sharper and differences seem harder to bridge, it is the outdoors that reconnects us.
Time and time again, when leaders invest in outdoor recreation the result is healthier
communities and healthier economies.
THE $887 BILLION OUTDOOR
RECREATION ECONOMY IS A MANDATE.
IF WE ARE TO TURN AMERICA’S NATURAL RESOURCES OVER
TO THE NEXT GENERATIONS “INCREASED, NOT IMPAIRED, IN
VALUE,” TODAY’S POLICYMAKERS MUST
1. Protect America’s lands and waters, the assets that are the
foundation of the outdoor recreation economy.
2. Invest in local and federal recreation infrastructure and programs
to ensure all Americans have access to public lands and waters.
3. Promote outdoor recreation as part of community and public health
policy and programming.。。。以上简介无排版格式,详细内容请下载查看
