- Welcome to The Nature Conservancy — the leading conservation organization working around the world to protect ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people.
We're proud of what we've accomplished since our founding in 1951:
*We've protected more than 117 million acres of land and 5,000 miles of rivers worldwide — and we operate more than 100 marine conservation projects globally.
*We have more than 1 million members.
*We work in all 50 states and more than 30 countries — protecting habitats from grasslands to coral reefs, from Australia to Alaska to Zambia.
*We address threats to conservation involving climate change, fire, fresh water, forests, invasive species, and marine ecosystems.
