And in the US in 2023, we're still busy whittling down what little regulatory protections our wetlands still have (Sackett v. EPA)


I'm fond of the saying "That government is best which governs least."

I would like to see a wetlands version of Temple Grandin's guidelines for the beef industry that got widely adopted because McDonald's de facto enforced it. They give you a list of goals or standards and don't micromanage how to achieve it.

Excellence requires some flexibility. Top-down dictates tend to set a minimum standard but frequently also de facto undermine the ability to hit a higher bar.


How about just reinstating the protections for the wetlands?
