 I suggest that the worst environmental crime of the past 100 years was the 
deliberate destruction of the marshes of Southern Iraq.  This was possibly 
the most important wintering site for Paleartic waterfowl.
The sooner the butcher of Baghdad is removed from power the better. I hope 
the US and others who will remove this monster and his regime will 
reconsitute the marshes.
 
 I agree, but I think the chances of them doing that are minimal, they will 
have other things to worry about, like maximising oil production....
