The Bureau of Land Management's National Conservation Lands turns 25 years old this year, and there is much to celebrate! We'll explore how the youngest system of America's protected public lands came about and the people and grassroots passion for place and activism that expanded the system over the last 25 years. We'll focus on the example of the California Coastal National Monument and the Point Arena-Stornetta unit to highlight this work. We'll also discuss the current status of the National Conservation Lands regarding partnerships and federal funding, and converse about creative solutions in crafting a sustainable future for Point Arena-Stornetta, the California Coastal National Monument, and the National Conservation Lands as a whole.
