We're blessed with natural treasures, from the Grand Tetons to the Grand Canyon.
We should leave it to our kids in better shape than we found it.
I've set aside more than 260 million acres of public lands and waters, more than any President in history.
I'm going to keep protecting the places that make America special and the livelihoods of those who depend on them.
