More emphasis must be placed on the development of local conservation to increase local capacity, cultivate self-perpetuating preservation movements, and improve the overall condition of areas and the conservationists there.
Support and Seek Conservation Education
Being informed on conservation issues guides one's own opinions and actions in the pursuit of environmental preservation. Communities should support programs to teach citizens about conservation issues and solutions, and individuals should actively seek information about the organizations to which they donate.
Support Localization
Local government can have direct, beneficial impact on natural conservation, so petitioning local officials or otherwise participating in local politics can effect conservation progress and protect natural resources.
Get Active
Joining local conservation groups or even creating one's own and actively volunteering or donating directly helps conservation and contributes to natural resource protection.
