Outdoor Alliance works to conserve landscapes that provide important outdoor experiences and ensure sustainable access to human-powered recreation. Outdoor Policy Learn more Outdoor Alliance works to protect and promote sustainable, equitable access for outdoor recreation through advocating for new legislation, collaboration with land managers, and protections for public lands and waters. Along with promoting improved legislation, we defend critical conservation policy and the public process to ensure all Americans have a say over their public lands and waters. Climate Policy Learn more Climate change has a significant effect on public lands and waters. Addressing climate change means ensuring a future with clean air and water, protected land, renewable energy, and economic growth. Outdoor Alliance and its member groups work closely to make public lands and waters a part of climate solutions. Funding Public Lands Learn more Adequate funding is one of the biggest obstacles to protecting public land, and it’s a problem that doesn’t get nearly enough attention.
