Obama Administration to request Everglades be put back on endangered sites list

From the article:

"Two years after a Bush Administration official removed Everglades National Park from a United Nations' list of endangered world sites, Obama Administration officials are seeking to put it back on.

"Hallelujah," U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., said in response.

Nelson has been lobbying for the Everglades to be put back on the list ever since the St. Petersburg Times reported that the park had been pulled off despite findings by scientists that the Everglades had not met the requirements for being removed from the list."
