Conservation Action

Use your outside voice! Tell Congress that protection of lands and waters is important!

(ALL RIGHTS) January 22, 2011. Nearly 400 volunteers came out to Mobile Bay in Alabama to help restore the Gulf of Mexico. During the course of this weekend event, the volunteers worked alongside Conservancy scientists and partners to construct the first quarter-mile of oyster reef as part of the 100-1000: Restore Coastal Alabama project. Spearheaded by The Nature Conservancy, Alabama Coastal Foundation, Mobile Baykeeper and The Ocean Foundation, the 100-1000 project aims to build 100 miles of oyster reefs and grow 1,000 acres of marsh and sea grass. © 2011 Erika Nortemann/The Nature Conservancy

Every day, decisions are made at the local, state and national levels that affect the health and safety of the water we drink, the food we eat and the air we breathe. The Conservancy works with government officials and partners to support public policies that protect our lands and waters so the next generations of Americans can build secure and rewarding lives.

You can help the Conservancy by taking action in support of conservation-based legislation and policies that affect all of our lives, not just today, but for generations to come.
