which environmentalist do you feel made the greatest contribution to the environmental science today?Why?


The environmentalist i think is the greatest is Franklin Delano Roosevelt because he established the WPA, CCC, and TVA which employed men to plant trees, build roads and paths in the national parks and control flooding.This helped many families who were struggling to raise children without a job.I think he is the greatest because he succeeded in what his goals were for the people and for the environment.
