There is no such
thing as compromise, when it comes to
protecting caves
and karst.
Once a cave is
impacted – its biota, its water flow and quality, its habitat capacity – it
will not be back to health any time soon.
Don’t compromise,
and don’t negotiate for “win-win.”
There’s no such
thing in cave and karst conservation and protection.
Roger Brucker
puts it this way: “There’s no right way
to do the wrong
thing.”
