Employs stronger, more extreme techniques to clean up severe pollution or create a newly functioning ecosystem on a seriously degraded or barren site
Transplanting organisms from an external source to a site where they have been previously reduced/eliminated
Began protecting streams and wetlands from pollution discharge
Once covered areas between Great Plains and the deciduous forest of the eastern U.S.
Using chemical, physical, or biological methods to remove pollution while causing as little disruption as possible
Blocked agricultural subsidies to farmers who damaged wetlands
