Our Conservation Practices

The National Wildlife Federation formed a staff environmental quality task force in 1988 to
study and improve internal operational practices in accordance with organization goals. Task
force members included environmental scientists and educators, professionals, and
administrative support and operational staff. The task force was a good example of cross-

departmental cooperation to address a common goal.
