The Minnesota Natural Legacy Campaign is a group of concerned citizens who have joined together to protect Minnesota’s way of life.
The Minnesota Natural Legacy Campaign recognizes that human activities are changing the Earth’s climate in a way that threatens our natural heritage, our economy, and our quality of life. As hunters, anglers, business people, conservationists, farmers, and religious leaders, we believe these challenges require prompt, responsible action from our national leaders.
The Minnesota Natural Legacy Campaign is working toward effective, common sense solutions that will protect the quality of Minnesota’s water, air, land, and wildlife and promote new opportunities for agriculture and business.
