But what the heck, if it takes a trendy term to make people appreciate nature, fine. Some wonder why the company would unload such prime real estate. If it doesn't have a Wal-Mart or a McDonald's, buy it. In the future it will be worth a fortune, if we don't foul it up. Turning land into a state park saves it from commercial development, but it doesn't save it from people.
People have a nasty habit of trashing up Georgia's park land.
Usually the places most fouled are those people can drive to. That's not always the case, of course. Some people will hike for miles to dump their litter. But that takes more time. A place people can drive right up to becomes a dump overnight.
