Nature’s Network Conservation Program: Difference between revisions

'''Nature’s Network Conservation Program''' is a Department of the Interior initiative spearheaded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s North Atlantic Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC), uniting partners from 13 Northeastern states, nongovernmental organizations, and universities to conserve over 64,000 miles of interconnected habitats across the Northeastern United States, supporting more than 1,093 migratory bird species and imperiled wildlife as of 2025. Launched in 2015, it integrates datasets via an interactive mapping tool to prioritize areas for habitat protection and restoration, completing over 300 projects by 2025 while enhancing resilience against climate change and urban sprawl, with ongoing efforts like the 2024 Southeast Conservation Blueprint sustaining its impact across a 22-million-acre region.
