The Supreme Court's #WVvEPA decision makes it harder to address the climate crisis at a time when we need do all we can, says Jennifer Morris. Congress must act now to pass meaningful climate legislation and avoid the worst climate impacts. nature.org/en-us/newsroom…

It’s good for nature, good for the economy, good for communities. And now the U.S. Senate has passed it. Is there any reason for the House not to #ActOnClimate? nature.org/en-us/newsroom…

Conservation is not just an issue for nature. It’s an issue that underpins gender, social, and economic equity across the globe. From Capitol Hill to across the globe, we must advance holistic, productive policies that are inclusive of all. Happy #InternationalWomensDay

The good news just keeps coming! Congress just passed the EXPLORE Act, a historic win for outdoor recreation and public lands. It codifies the #LWCF-funded OLRP program, which helps tribes and underserved communities apply for funding to help increase outdoor access for all.

Policy makes conservation and climate action possible – and nature needs an advocate. That's why The Nature Conservancy staff were in D.C. last week to meet with lawmakers. We had over 160 meetings to urge leaders to support policies and funding that protect people, wildlife and nature.
