Conservation Benefits

How will LandScope America benefit conservation? 

• By helping all members of the land-protection community carry out their missions. 
• By connecting people:  through LandScope, we’ll build online communities that care about particular places that are special to them.
• By inspiring support for conservation among the public.

For environmental groups, land trusts, local, state and federal agencies, foundations, landowners . . . regardless of your role in the land-protection community, LandScope America can enhance your understanding of conservation issues and priorities and help align your work towards action and investment, maximizing conservation value.

   In partnership with the Land Trust Alliance, we’ve reached out to local and state land trusts to learn what resources and tools they are seeking to do their jobs better. Land trusts can have a direct role in creating the LandScope America experience by adding your voice to this initiative.
