What do Colorado’s people, economy, and natural areas have in common? They rely on healthy, connected ecosystems to provide clean air, clean water, and outdoor recreation opportunities. Many animals and plants rely on connected habitats to find food, water, shelter, and breeding sites. 

Colorado’s expanding human population and development, changing climate, and increasing recreational use of public lands is increasing habitat loss and fragmentation.

Join Great Old Broads for Wilderness and Endangered Species Coalition for an online panel discussion about the need to ensure ecosystem integrity and resilience and protect watersheds, healthy forests and sensitive habitats. Engage in conversation about current trends and potential strategies to ensure unfragmented landscapes.
