And 2 - Make the snowmobiles adhere to the same pollution and noise requirements that autos have to and I think most people would fully support having the in the National Parks. But as it stands now they spew out so much NOx, CO, and VOC's that they are killing our countries lungs! With snowmobiles it really isn't about the CO2, its about the pollutants that are currently regulated, and it is shocking that snowmobiles are allowed to pollute the way that they do!
