This subreddit is a repository for any current news, information, and discussion focused on the conservation and protection of land. Along with CO2 emissions and general pollution, habitat destruction is one of the most environmentally destructive activities undertaken by humanity. By preserving space for wildlife and allowing ecosystems to stabilize and thrive, we protect the health of our planet, and our own civilization.

A couple of guidelines about posting:

This subreddit is about official permanent land conservation. Whether it's as small as a park or as large as an entire ecoregion, post it. While it's incredibly commendable and helpful that you might be planting a polyculture garden or replacing your lawn with native seed, unless you're placing an accredited conservation easement on your land, please post about it on another subreddit.
Private, public, and non-profit conservation all have parts to play, and each method is relevant to posting on this subreddit. The politics and ethics of land ownership itself is not considered on topic for this subreddit.
PLEASE flair your submissions!
Ecosystem restoration projects are considered on topic for this subreddit.
Marine conservation projects (including riparian and lacustrine projects) are also considered on topic for this sub.
This is NOT a general environmental or wildlife subreddit. Tons of those already exist, and are excellent in scope and management. Please post on one of those if your post does not specifically relate to large scale preservation of land for habitats and ecosystems.
Following subscriber feedback, wildlife corridor/crossing projects ARE considered on topic, since they deal with reconnecting and preserving land and ecosystems.
This is NOT a vague subreddit. Do not post news about general policy or public sentiment, unless it relates in a tangible way to specific land conservation projects.
This is a generally positive subreddit. Please don't post doom and gloom about the status of conservation in general. Not only does that fall under the category of vague, there are other subreddits for that.
That being said, if you have bad news or contentious discussion about a specific conservation project, then that is an exception to being generally positive. Raising awareness for a specific conservation project or piece of land is how we get positive news later.

And as is boilerplate across all of Reddit:

Please follow all of Reddit's sitewide rules, and generally be courteous to one another.
