CLF IS AT CLIMATE WEEK NYC!

This week, New York City brings together business leaders, policymakers, scientists, investors and nonprofits for one of the world's biggest climate conversations.

Hundreds of events. Big ideas. Real-world solutions.

And CLF is bringing land conservation into the conversation.

Because protecting land can protect water, wildlife, working lands and military readiness.

THE GREAT SALT LAKE AND MILITARY READINESS. ONE CONNECTED LANDSCAPE.

A recent Utah report highlights how the health of the Great Salt Lake is connected to national security and military readiness.

CLF is proud to be a partner in the Great Salt Lake Sentinel Landscape, working alongside Utah and other partners to protect the lands and resources that connect the lake, surrounding communities and military installations—including Hill Air Force Base.

Through conservation, CLF is helping address development pressure, protect water resources and working lands, preserve wildlife habitat, and support military readiness.

Turns out, everybody wins when the land stays compatible.

Nobody wakes up thinking:

“You know what this beautiful piece of land needs? A strip mall.”

But development happens.

CLF works with landowners and partners to keep important landscapes working, wild and compatible with military readiness.

Because sometimes the best development is no development.

America’s landscapes do more than look good.

They train our military.
They shelter wildlife.
They protect our water.
They keep working lands working.
That’s why we protect them.

Military readiness is knowing you have room to do your job.

For the military, that means room to train, fly, maneuver—and sometimes make a lot of noise.

The problem? Subdivisions tend to complain about all of that.

So we help protect the land before the complaints—and the incompatible development—move in.

Some of America’s most important land just looks like… land.

Ranches. Forests. Grasslands. Open space.

Protect it—and you protect military readiness, wildlife, working lands, and clean water.
