Land Conservation
Land Conservation
We must protect 30% of lands by 2030 to fight the climate and extinction crisis. Protecting wild places will keep drilling and logging from dumping pollution into the air, sequester emissions, provide protection from extreme weather, homes for wildlife, and opportunities for people to enjoy the outdoors together.
About Our Program
Our campaign focuses on protecting lands as a climate solution. Safeguarding these places will reduce our carbon pollution and conserve these places for future generations.
