Many Americans now and in the past have been concerned about the use of the nation's Natural Resources. The main concern is that finding and then using such natural resources such as forest trees will deplete these resources despite the replanting of trees that have been cut down and used for lumber or paper products. Other natural resources such as oil and gas may require the destruction and quality of nearby rivers and streams and increase air pollution. The US State and Federal governments are working with "Green groups" and industry to minimize the damage to the USA's natural resources.
