At The Wilderness Society, we’re working to direct renewable energy projects to the most sensible lands. And we’re joined by other conservationists, sportsmen, elected officials, utility commissioners, energy companies and others who are united in calling for forward thinking policies.
Guiding Smart Development
We work to guide renewable energy development away from sensitive wildlands and wildlife habitat and onto lands that have already been used. These lands are close to cities and existing roads and transmission lines.
Incentives for Smart Development
We are working to help government agencies and land planners incentivize development of renewable energy, especially on already degraded lands.
Wilderness is a precious resource with many human, natural and economic benefits that we need to protect.
