At AMC, we support science-based solutions to environmental threats. Our conservation team produces high-quality scientific information and analyses in support of AMC\u2019s mission. We work on climate change, air and water quality, forests, and mountain ecosystems in collaboration with some of the region\u2019s most highly regarded universities and agency partners. This research informs our work and advocacy with policymakers in Washington, D.C., and in states across the region, as we forge practical, nonpartisan solutions to protect the outdoors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
