America could put nearly 60,000 people to work within 90-180 days by funding important conservation projects on public lands — projects like restoring wetlands, reconnecting habitat across highways, removing invasive species, rehabilitating native forests and prairies, and making facilities and buildings on public lands more energy efficient.

Projects like these projects would have tangible benefits for imperiled wildlife, could keep local construction, electrical, landscape and other companies working throughout 2009 and would provide the next generation of workers with the skills they need to lead a green revolution in our economy.

Speak out for creating green jobs to protect lands and wildlife. Fill out the form below to urge President Obama and your U.S. Representative and Senators to help create jobs that will protect our wildlife and our environment.
