“No area can sustain growth if its natural resources become degraded or depleted. … You can’t put conservation on the back end of that as this thing you think about later, because if you’re looking to build something in a location that has inadequate water supply, that is not a sustainable situation.” - Michael O'Reilly Our rivers and streams are some of our most precious resources, providing us with everything from recreational opportunities to the water that sustains life, which is why we will never stop fighting to protect and preserve them.

"It’s one of the wildest places I’ve ever visited," writes Eric Seeger in his wonderful new article about the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. The beauty and ecological richness of America's largest blackwater swamp attracts more than half a million visitors annually and powers the economies of surrounding counties. But this vital natural treasure is threatened by ill-conceived plans to mine for a common component of white paint. #ProtecttheOkefenokee The Nature Conservancy https://lnkd.in/eec66Ak7

We joined the Georgia Chamber of Commerce's second annual Future of Sustainability meeting this week to support finding new solutions for businesses to lower their carbon footprint and be better stewards of the environment. From innovations in energy to Georgia’s rapidly growing electric vehicle manufacturing industry, we’re inspired by the renewed commitment to sustainability within our business community. While there is a lot of work left to do, seeing so many stakeholders come together at events like these make it clear that we’re heading in the right direction.
