However, according to \u003ca href=\"http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs114/en/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WHO\u003c/a>, the eradication of polio would mark “the delivery of a major global public good that will benefit all people, equally, no matter where they live. Economic modelling has found that…[eradication] would save at least US$ 40-50 billion over the next 20 years, most in low-income countries.

However, according to \u003ca href=\"http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs114/en/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WHO\u003c/a>, the eradication of polio would mark “the delivery of a major global public good that will benefit all people, equally, no matter where they live.

Findings state that the bird is well distributed across much of its range, is “relatively abundant” and is not at risk of extinction now or in the foreseeable future. The decision followed years of a passionate debate between environmentalists, scientists, landowners, ranchers, the oil industry and others across the West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People advocating for the bird to be listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) pointed to the decline of the population. There are about \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2015/09/01/435491783/fight-to-save-the-sage-grouse-finds-friends-in-all-corners-of-the-west\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">400,000 sage grouse remaining\u003c/a>, a fraction of what the population once was. Over a span of only seven years from 2006-2013, the population decreased by more than 50 percent. Studies in the mid-2000s proved that this rapid decline was mainly due to the negative effects of oil retrieval and gas in these states. The \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/sagebrush-sea-full-episode/12341/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sagebrush ecosystem\u003c/a>, the backdrop of old Westerns, once covered 500,000 square miles. Now, it’s size has shrunk by half, and it is greatly fragmented. It is a diverse ecosystem that supports 350 species, including migrating birds and pronghorn antelope. Natural gas, oil, coal, cattle ranches, and other building projects have fragmented the system, leading to roadkill and devastating barriers. Greater sage grouse rely on extensive amounts of sagebrush for survival and have had their short distance migration impeded. They must move to wetter areas in summer, many of which have been taken over by humans. The greater sage grouse is an “umbrella” species, which means its health is indicative of the health of the entire ecosystem.

Protecting the greater sage grouse under the ESA would have severely limited activities within its sagebrush habitat, such as cattle grazing and energy development. The economic implications of shutting down development in this area would be massive. There are solar and wind farms across the range, drilling for oil and natural gas, and even a gold mine in Nevada. The 11 states where sage grouse live–Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Oregon, Nevada, Washington, California, Utah, Colorado, South Dakota and North Dakota–would have also been economically impacted by an ESA listing of the bird. “If the hunters can’t hunt, if the miners can’t mine, if you don’t have that capital, then you lose, “ said \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/govbeat/wp/2014/05/11/western-states-worry-decision-on-birds-fate-could-cost-billions-in-development/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leo Drozdoff\u003c/a>, director of the Nevada Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The 11 states would have been looking at a $1 billion tab in conservation costs, which Drozdoff referred to as “almost insurmountable.” The states set up a task force in 2011 to work with the Fish and Wildlife Service to coordinate conservation plans in order to avoid a listing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The non-listing will not be without some controversy.

Findings state that the bird is well distributed across much of its range, is “relatively abundant” and is not at risk of extinction now or in the foreseeable future. The decision followed years of a passionate debate between environmentalists, scientists, landowners, ranchers, the oil industry and others across the West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People advocating for the bird to be listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) pointed to the decline of the population. There are about \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2015/09/01/435491783/fight-to-save-the-sage-grouse-finds-friends-in-all-corners-of-the-west\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">400,000 sage grouse remaining\u003c/a>, a fraction of what the population once was. Over a span of only seven years from 2006-2013, the population decreased by more than 50 percent. Studies in the mid-2000s proved that this rapid decline was mainly due to the negative effects of oil retrieval and gas in these states. The \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/sagebrush-sea-full-episode/12341/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sagebrush ecosystem\u003c/a>, the backdrop of old Westerns, once covered 500,000 square miles. Now, it’s size has shrunk by half, and it is greatly fragmented. It is a diverse ecosystem that supports 350 species, including migrating birds and pronghorn antelope. Natural gas, oil, coal, cattle ranches, and other building projects have fragmented the system, leading to roadkill and devastating barriers. Greater sage grouse rely on extensive amounts of sagebrush for survival and have had their short distance migration impeded. They must move to wetter areas in summer, many of which have been taken over by humans. The greater sage grouse is an “umbrella” species, which means its health is indicative of the health of the entire ecosystem. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2015/09/02/the-western-sagebrush-is-a-backdrop-in-every-epic-cowboy-movie-can-it-be-saved\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Washington Post\u003c/a>, a listing of the greater sage grouse would have put into place mandatory protection efforts that would have, in effect, conserved the sagebrush ecosystem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_39429\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">[media-credit standalone=0 name=\" Tom Koerner/USFWS\" align=\"alignleft\" width=\"400\"]\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2015/09/15692397085_a64c09a2d3_z.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-39429\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2015/09/15692397085_a64c09a2d3_z-400x290.jpg\" alt=\"Greater Sage Grouse, Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge.\" width=\"400\" height=\"290\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2015/09/15692397085_a64c09a2d3_z-400x290.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2015/09/15692397085_a64c09a2d3_z.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003c/a>[/media-credit]\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Greater Sage Grouse, Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge. \u003ccite>( Tom Koerner/USFWS)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Industries were opposed to an ESA listing for the sage grouse, saying that the birds weren’t in risk of going extinct and a listing would have cost billions of dollars to the economy of the rural West. Protecting the greater sage grouse under the ESA would have severely limited activities within its sagebrush habitat, such as cattle grazing and energy development. The economic implications of shutting down development in this area would be massive. There are solar and wind farms across the range, drilling for oil and natural gas, and even a gold mine in Nevada. The 11 states where sage grouse live–Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Oregon, Nevada, Washington, California, Utah, Colorado, South Dakota and North Dakota–would have also been economically impacted by an ESA listing of the bird. “If the hunters can’t hunt, if the miners can’t mine, if you don’t have that capital, then you lose, “ said \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/govbeat/wp/2014/05/11/western-states-worry-decision-on-birds-fate-could-cost-billions-in-development/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leo Drozdoff\u003c/a>, director of the Nevada Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The 11 states would have been looking at a $1 billion tab in conservation costs, which Drozdoff referred to as “almost insurmountable.” The states set up a task force in 2011 to work with the Fish and Wildlife Service to coordinate conservation plans in order to avoid a listing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
