The preserves are probably the last undeveloped inhabitable places in the world, says Gene Rhodes, assistant professor of wildlife ecology at Purdue. Without preserves like this, the world is in jeopardy of losing the biological information that has existed there for all of this time. We don't know what plants or animals might live there that might be useful to us in the future, but we are certain that if we allow these areas to be developed that we will lose some of those species. Here are 14 Purdue experts who can discuss various aspects of environmental policy, including agricultural issues, energy resources, environmental engineering, ground water regulations, natural resources, recycling, risk analysis, solid waste management, urban development, and waste and septic systems.
