Massachusetts
Working to Protect the Bay State
Join Nature Conservancy President and CEO Mark Tercek for a discussion about his new book, Nature's Fortune. Harvard Coop, July 9, 7 p.m.
Urgent environmental challenges demand society's attention. Yet too often, we put ourselves in the position of making choices between a healthy economy and a healthy natural world.
The Nature Conservancy believes that people and nature can thrive together. In Massachusetts and around the world, we restore and protect critical lands and waters, even while we collaborate with resource users to develop sustainable practices. When people remember that nature is all around us, and that we are part of it, we can let go of polarized thinking and find solutions that work.
Join the conversation and explore the great work you make possible in Massachusetts and beyond!
