Sin embargo, hoy en día, incluso cuando miramos un árbol o contemplamos un paisaje impresionante, rara vez vemos la naturaleza como algo sagrado.

Since the Supreme Court's 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, this judicial review has been highly deferential: courts must uphold agency interpretations of unclear laws as long as these interpretations are "reasonable."
