I think most people would agree allocating land for the public good is a positive thing for nearly every citizen.

    Public lands are vital for biodiversity as well as for public recreation. You typically very rarely hear a politician talking about them though, at least it’s probably 30 down on the list of talking points (for democrats obviously).

    Right leaning politicians typically sell off these lands and democrats do the inverse. (1) Why is the public so unaware of such programs that have a large effect on the wellbeing of everyone? (2) I mean I generally have an idea to why, as probably most everyone else does, but what could actually be done to inform people?
