Wilderness

The loss of our wilderness and wild creatures signals big trouble not only for the “outdoor” environment or what we think of as nature, but also for human society. Healthy native ecosystems help clean the air we breathe and water we drink and also fertilize the soils we need to grow nutritious food.



 


For specific questions about our efforts to protect deserts and grassland, contact Lauren McCain, desert and grasslands coordinator.
