Park is not monitoring pollution

We recently learned that monitoring air and water pollution is not a high priority to the people who run Glacier National Park, as documents show that they have only one air monitoring quality station and that the ecologist for the Rocky Mountain Network, National Park Service admitted that none of the “data they are collecting now” or have collected “will properly address dust or other contaminants from the North Fork Road.”

I would have expected the various conservation groups in this area to express outrage over this information and issue demands that air and water pollution be aggressively monitored. But these groups have shown no outrage. Instead they are showing how hypocritical they are. How sad.
