A Global Vision for Public Lands
from Green Root Podcast Hosted by greenrootpodcast
On episode 124 of the Green Root Podcast (the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance), host Josh Schlossberg shares Eco-Integrity Alliance’s long-term global vision for public lands. Josh talks about: -How public lands are the last best ecosystems in the U.S. with both the legal and cultural frameworks for genuine protection; -How we can no longer afford to sell off nor “sell out” public lands to corporate extraction; -How only 4 percent of U.S. “timber” and 2 percent of beef come from public lands anyway; -The importance of establishing public lands as Biodiversity, Watershed, and Climate Refugia (BWCR) and the new petition to get out the word https://www.change.org/p/protect-u-s-public-lands-as-biodiversity-watershed-climate-refugia -How BWCR fits into the Global Biodiversity Framework and Half-Earth vision. The mission of Eco-Integrity Alliance (eco-integrityalliance.org) is to unite U.S. grassroots ecosystem advocates through common campaigns of mutual support.
