CONSERVATION

Easement Stewardship

Another Perspective, as a part of its mission to promote conservation, utilizes strategic approaches to conservation easements and land management to steward the preservation of important habitats, open spaces, and natural areas.

Another Perspective works with landowners, institutions, and corporations to identify the biologically important areas on their properties and develop reasonable and effective conservation easements is a critical step in promoting our mission of conservation.

 A conservation easement is a legal agreement that permanently limits the use of the land in order to protect its conservation values. As an affiliate of the Land Trust Alliance, we utilize tools and resources for monitoring and enforcement that are standard across the land trust industry, while tailoring our approach to individual landowner needs.

With approximately 50,000 acres of land protected with conservation easements, Another Perspective is able to:

-Reduce air and water pollution.

-Prevent soil erosion and improve soil quality.

-Help to sequester greenhouse gases.

-Manage and protect watersheds and wetlands.

-Conserve natural forests.

-Preserve fish and wildlife habitats, endangered species, & promote biodiversity.
