The Climate
is changing
and so must we.
Today, we are divided in so many ways. We are socially
distanced, politically alienated, and riven by legacies
of inequity and injustice. But we can no longer afford
to be a world divided. The stakes are too high.
Our ability to face climate change is dependent on
our ability to join together. In that, as ever, we can learn
from nature—that our differences are our strength,
our connections will endure, and nothing exists alone.
TOGETHER, we can unite scientific learning with
proven practices to reduce and manage the effects
of the climate crisis.
TOGETHER, we can build a future that is just, equitable,
and strengthened by the diversity of plant, animal, and
human life.
TOGETHER, we can connect our local initiatives to the
search for global climate solutions.
TOGETHER, we can restore the connections between
land, river, and sea that sustain the resilient ecosystems
we need to protect life on a warming planet.
I invite you to join The Nature Conservancy (TNC)
as we JOIN MAINE—with science, with nature,
with one another, and with the world—and take
action on climate change, together.
