Bighorn sheep near Moapa, NV
We started in 1999 by working to protect public lands in Nevada as permanent Wilderness, the strongest protection possible. The results? – More than 3 million acres of spectacular and rugged land in Nevada have been protected by Congress for future generations. And our work has just begun.

We also work with energy companies and public officials to ensure renewable energy development in Nevada is “smart from the start” – harnessing renewable and clean energy resources while protecting wildlife habitats, open spaces and the iconic beauty of the state.
We also prod, persuade and persist in working with Nevada’s Congressional delegation to pass bills designating public land in Nevada as Wilderness, National Conservation Area or other designations to protect our state’s spectacular natural gems.
The pieces are in place in Nevada for conserving a multi-million-acre complex of wildlands, and we believe it will be a habitat and wildlife mosaic of global significance.
