Advocating for Our Natural Resources
Rooted In Georgia. Working For Its Future.
The Georgia Conservancy has a long history of advocating for the protection and conservation of Georgia’s natural resources at the local, state, and federal levels.
We’re working year-round on key issues, including transportation, energy, water resources, land conservation, and development, to make Georgia a place where people and the environment thrive.
Principled advocacy relies upon sound data and inclusive collaboration. With this in mind, the Georgia Conservancy’s Advocacy team is under the Gold Dome every day of the Legislative Session working with partners in advocating for the protection of Georgia’s land, water, and communities.

The conservation of ecologically, economically, and recreationally important lands wouldn’t be possible without sustainable and reliable funding and incentives from the government. Here in Georgia, three programs critical to conservation are either nearing reauthorization or need formalized dedicated funds.
