The future of nature is nonpartisan. Let's combat environmental extremism with common sense
Fox News
If we wants to make environmental progress that lasts beyond the next Election Day, we need a group that fights to conserve our natural beauty regardless of which "side" is in power.
Benji Backer is the Founder and CEO of Nature Is Nonpartisan. He also serves as the Executive Chairman of the American Conservation Coalition and is the best-selling author of "The Conservative Environmentalist: Common Sense Solutions for a Sustainable Future."
Look at the numbers: 95% of voters say that protecting the water in our lakes, streams, and rivers is important to them. 93% believe clean energy is crucial for our future. 88% support sustainable agriculture practices. And 82% support federal investment to reduce the threat of wildfires. Public opinion hasn’t changed in the last three decades, our leaders have just become too politically stubborn.
