Ranchers and conservationists, once unlikely allies, are teaming up to preserve grasslands, which act as a carbon dioxide sink that could support climate goals.
If we can pass the North American Grasslands Conservation Act, we can secure funding for prairie habitat and turn the tide on the disappearance of grasslands.
Grasslands store carbon, cycle nutrients and sustain songbirds and other wildlife—yet less than half of all grasslands remain, and we plow up millions more acres each year.
