Science<\/h2>\n

Science enables evidence-based decision-making, ensuring conservation work is informed by the best-available data and expertise. Our dedicated team of research scientists are investigating the impacts of climate change in the mountains; the effects of air and water pollution on the natural world; and the strategies needed to support climate resilience and protect the vital ecosystems we rely on and enjoy. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Advocacy<\/h2>\n

At AMC, we believe the outdoors deserves a voice. We work with decision makers, federal and state agencies, and a wide range of non-governmental partners from Maine to Virginia to protect the outdoors. We advocate for public policy that addresses climate change, improves air and water quality, and protects the lands, forests, water, and outdoor recreation opportunities we depend on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
