Overview
Fossil energy development on Western public lands impacts more high-quality fish and wildlife habitat than any other single activity. Hunters and anglers are keenly aware of these impacts and are especially credible with the public and decision makers in the West. This renewal grant would support the National Wildlife Federation’s program to engage hunters and anglers in efforts to keep key wildlife and fish habitat off-limits to fossil-energy leasing and development. The Federation will educate its members on the effects of fossil energy on habitat, organize members to speak to administration officials that make polices affecting public land, and reach out to the press to document the concerns of its sportsmen members.
