Conservefewell is a forum where diverse and thoughtful minds share ideas and developments affecting our natural environment. We are a group of thought leaders, entrepreneurs, former government officials, policy experts, and environmental advocates who are committed to changing the tone and dialogue of environmental stewardship. We aspire to inspire and motivate others to think and act differently about environmental stewardship. Yet, unfortunately, in today’s highly-charged political environment, the topic of the environment itself often pits individuals and groups against one another. And the debate is often politicized, ignores science, or is oversimplified, when in reality the topic is much more complex.

While we acknowledge and celebrate the environmental progress of the last four decades, we believe the environmental challenges and risks to society that lie ahead demand more thoughtful and reasoned responses. If we are to succeed in safeguarding our natural heritage, we must call upon the leaders of society, whether they be found in government or civic associations, i.e., families, local clubs and environmental groups, institutions, and churches – which Burke fondly referred to as society’s little platoons – to endeavor to find new ways to collaborate and promote sustainable solutions. And we believe that these complex issues and attending difficult conversations warrant a more respectful and thoughtful tone in our public discourse.
