Solving the toughest challenges facing California's land, air and water.
About us
Sustainable Conservation helps California thrive by uniting people to solve the toughest challenges facing our land, air and water. Every day, we bring together business, landowners and government to steward the resources that we all depend on in ways that make economic sense. Because we know that common ground is California’s most important resource. Too often, conflict overshadows common ground when solving environmental problems. For decades, fighting it out in court or the state house has been the default approach to addressing tough challenges facing California’s land, air, and water. Each conflict deepens the distrust and animosity between environmental groups and business, while the pressure on our vital natural resources only increases. California deserves better. When we unite all those who are affected by a problem, understand their perspectives, and find common ground, we succeed in stewarding the resources we all depend on for a thriving future.

Sustainable Conservation’s Accelerating Restoration program is excited to announce the Restoration Permitting Roadmap, a first-of-its-kind web tool designed to help restoration practitioners in the Sacramento River Basin navigate the often complex and time-consuming permitting process.

Snowpack levels are crucial for summer water supply—less snow in winter means reduced runoff in spring, leading to lower river levels and water shortages during the hottest months. Department of Energy researchers are studying snow droughts and developing better climate models to help manage water resources in a warmer future
