We’ve done reasonably well at conservation — I’m proud to be a board member of the Adirondack Conservancy, which has helped preserve the most beautiful landscape in the country. But preservation without action on climate change is pretty empty — it won’t be the Adirondacks if it doesn’t have a winter. Ultimately this is a fight between the future, and the fossil fuel industry. Mark Tercek is the president and CEO of The Nature Conservancy.

A stewardship committee of local experts and volunteers was organized to care for the preserve and maintain it.
