Campaign for Conservation:

A 50-Year Plan to Preserve Minnesota's Natural Resources

December 14, 3 - 5 p.m.

Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, 7678 College Road, Suite 105, =
Baxter/Brainerd



Despite the importance of the Great Outdoors to Minnesota's high quality =
of life and economic well being, state conservation budgets have slipped =
alarmingly in recent years. The share of the state budget that goes to =
conservation is at the lowest level in three decades. On top of this, =
Minnesota is the fastest growing state in the Midwest and will add =
another 1.2 million citizens over the next 25 years.  John Curry of the =
Minnesota Campaign for Conservation will discuss a 50-year plan that =
will allow state and local leaders, along with citizens, to preserve =
what matters most even as our population booms.
