Share your support for our new national conservation goal!

Zoos, aquariums, and museums, together with people from across the country, are applauding the vision of the “America the Beautiful” initiative, which includes a new national goal of conserving and restoring at least 30% of U.S. lands, waters, and ocean by 2030.

But to achieve this goal, we need your help! Your representatives need to hear directly from you!

As organizations committed to animal care and conservation, zoos, aquariums, and museums know that achieving this goal is essential to saving species from extinction. We also know that achieving this goal will bring many other benefits, from stabilizing our climate to providing our communities with increased access to the outdoors. And the ”America the Beautiful” initiative shows us how we can do so through collaboration and inclusion, respect for the knowledge and wisdom of Indigenous peoples, and support for a wide array of voluntary and locally-led efforts. Working together, this goal is well within our reach.

Dear [recipient position will go here] [recipient name will go here],

Your Letter *

Today I am writing to applaud our new national goal of conserving and restoring at least 30% of our nation’s lands, waters, and ocean by 2030, and to encourage you to accelerate efforts in keeping with the vision for “America the Beautiful.”

For more than a century, the United States has risen to meet the major environmental challenges facing us, and science now tells us that meeting this new national goal is the minimum we must do if we are to: 
     
•	Protect our wildlife
•	Stabilize our climate  
•	Safeguard our future
•	And provide increased access to the outdoors

By working together as envisioned in “America the Beautiful,” I am confident that we can succeed. And you can help by empowering the ongoing, locally driven conservation efforts of communities across the country, and by listening to the experts on the ground, including Indigenous peoples, scientists, and others, as well as landowners and all of those who are on the frontlines of stewarding and enjoying nature.

Our very future depends on taking conservation action now.  Together with zoos, aquariums, museums, and many others from across our state and around our nation, I strongly encourage you to accelerate land, water, and ocean conservation and restoration efforts at all levels of government and across the country to meet this goal for the benefit of all.

Thank you,

Sincerely,
