Redefining Conservation for the 21st Century

Our roadmap to a conservation model that works for rural America, working lands and wildlife.

Conservation as usual isn’t working. We are literally losing ground and natural resources every day. We can’t afford to waste any more time with top-down solutions that don’t work. It’s time for an entirely new approach to conservation.

The Biden administration announced a major rollout of policy priorities, via executive action, during their first 10 days in office. Many of these priorities will have direct impacts on western working lands, especially major climate and biodiversity initiatives like 30 by 30.

Meanwhile, many are wondering how the Biden Administration can find enough common purpose with rural communities and people in red states to re-unify our divided country.

We’re here to tell you, there are ways that the administration can accomplish both goals. But they have to be committed to working on them not just over the first 10 days, or 100 days, but over the first 1000 days (in other words, the entire term).

We sent the administration this handy roadmap to these first 1000 days, and let them know we are committed long-term to fighting for a conservation model that works for working lands.
