Roads are the greatest current threat to the continued existence of life on Earth.
Take, for example, Route 75 in Florida. It regularly causes the death of alligators and the endangered Florida panther. Dave Foreman gave a history of the road-fighting movement from Aldo Leopold on.

Activist Keith Hammer described how the Forest Service's regulations set standards for maximum road densities on FS lands, and provide a procedure for closing any roads above that limit.
