Conservation of all species, not just humans. The loss of biological diversity is one of the worst impacts we are having on our planet.
MEIC is very good at seeing what’s coming over the horizon. They led on our subdivision and streambed laws, for which I’m very grateful every time I see an unspoiled view.
If you feel discouraged, that’s okay. It’s good to see the world clearly if that leads to action. Nothing is more important than conservation activism.

Citizen Lobby Day – January 26, 2017
Jan 26, 2017
Lobby Day from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Conservation Legislative Social starting at 5:30 PM
Please join us for our first conservation lobby day during the 2017 legislative session. You’ll receive an exclusive training from policy experts in the conservation community on lobbying and a briefing on our priority issues. We’ll focus on critical legislation affecting clean energy, clean air, climate change, and land use.
Expanding Clean Energy in Montana!
One of the best opportunities in the 2017 legislative session to improve Montana’s environmental laws involves the encouragement of renewable energy systems. There are several bills that MEIC supports that will improve our current clean energy laws and we will work hard to have passed. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly – there are even more bad bills that need to be defeated.
A bill partially repealing the so called “tax holiday” incentive on new oil and gas development would bolster state revenues under a fairer tax system, a state representative argued Thursday.
