Is Conservation DEAD?

On episode 109 of the Green Root Podcast (the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance), host Josh Schlossberg questions whether it’s finally time to declare the failed, mainstream “conservation movement” officially dead, while wondering what new, inspiring vision might rise from its ashes. Josh talks about: -How middle-of-the-road “conservation” might no longer be a relevant concept this late in our ecological unraveling. -How mainstream “Big Green” organizations watered down environmental protection to the point of ineffectiveness. -How federal, state, and local governments fund NGOs pretending to be conservation groups only to promote industrial extraction. -How it might be time for ecosystem and wildlife advocates to take a fresh angle on protecting and preserving nature. The mission of Eco-Integrity Alliance (eco-integrityalliance.org) is to unite U.S. grassroots ecosystem advocates through common campaigns of mutual support.
