The Bureau of Land Management Must Take Bold Action
For the Nation to Reach its Conservation Goals

Our nation’s public lands are tremendous assets to the American people, particularly in the West. Our tourist, outdoor, and agricultural economies; as well as our local communities’ health, land, water, and air quality all depend on having great federal land management partners that ensure a balanced approach to resource management. With the growing need to take action on climate change and its increasing impact on the land, communities across the West are struggling to manage the devastating impacts from wildfires, floods, mudslides, drought, and heatwaves.

As the largest land manager in the nation, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has a critical role to play in helping to combat the growing pressure we are managing by taking bold action to protect and conserve more of our nation’s lands and waters. The BLM manages 245 million acres of land largely spread across 12 western states. Protecting these lands in their natural, undeveloped condition is crucial to combating the effects of climate change. Across the West, these lands provide real, quantifiable carbon sequestration and climate adaptation benefits. They also serve to conserve scarce water resources helping states address droughts and wildfires. They serve as critical climate refugia for wildlife species and play a vital role in ensuring habitat connectivity across the West. 

In short, conserving Bureau of Land Management lands needs to be at the heart of the Biden administration’s America the Beautiful initiative and administrative actions, like those listed below, should be prioritized in efforts to protect, conserve, and restore more of our nation’s lands and waters.
