The Wilderness Society understands how valuable the “amber waves of grain” and “purple mountains majesty” are to our country, and they are dedicated to protecting them. As the leading conservation organization in America, the Wilderness Society works to protect America’s land, and they strive to create an “American land ethic” in which Americans appreciate and fight to preserve the natural wonders around us.
