Congratulations to Mandy Gull-Masty and Anne Richardson who each received a Conservation Visionary Award yesterday at the International Land Conservation Network 2024 Global Congress (#ILCN2024)! * Mandy Gull-Masty is Grand Chief of the Grand Council of the Crees (Eeyou Istchee)/Cree Nation Government and Chairperson of the Cree Nation Government. She has championed her people’s interests throughout her career and advocated for centering Cree values and leadership in the expansion of conservation lands across Eeyou Istchee (the Cree homeland). She played a key role in the Cree Nation’s collective efforts to protect more than 39,000 square kilometres in Eeyou Istchee. * Anne Richardson is Chief of the Rappahannock Tribe. She was recognized for her leadership in returning her tribe to its ancestral lands along the Rappahannock River in Virginia, USA, and preserving—in perpetuity—their natural and cultural importance. She is now leading an effort to rematriate ~650 hectares of Fones Cliffs, the Tribe’s ancestral homelands, and protect them for their cultural heritage and as important habitat for wildlife including bald eagles and waterfowl.

Packed house at Caroline County Community Center tonight to speak out about the DEQ water withdrawal permit being justified to open a new data center. What an incredible gathering of Tribal Nations, farmers, elected officials all in opposition. People are asking tough questions about the future of a river already under threat. To date no meaningful formal consultation between DEQ and the tribes has taken place despite the threats to treaty rights and protected and endangered species. There have been absolutely NO comments in favor of issuing the intake permit. Taking water from the Rappahannock for private data centers is stealing water from this cultural treasure and future generations. Great job to the?Rappahannock Tribe, Upper Mattaponi Indian Tribe, Friends Of The Rappahannock, Virginia Farm Bureau Federation, ESSEX COUNTY PRESERVATION TRUST LTD, and so many others!! #DataCenters?#SOS(Save Our Sturgeon/Shad/Striped Bass) #StoptheSteal?#WaterisLife?#Rappahannock?#Conservation?#Indigenous
