Question

Which statement best characterizes the position of Gifford Pinchot toward land conservation?

Conservation should not interfere with industrial expansion.

Unrestricted development was acceptable.

Further privatization should be prohibited.

A multi-use land program was possible.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D is correct

A multi-use land program was possible.

Explanation:

Gifford Pinchot built a "wise use" approach for public lands. Most of the conservationists think that by using land sustainability, it can be preserved for future generations. Pinchot's conservation theory also conflates with John Muir's theory of preservation. The theory says that human actions can affect landscapes. Thus Gifford Pinchor supported a multi-use land program.
