West Virginians for Public Lands (WVPL) is an alliance of organizations, businesses, and individuals advocating to protect and enhance West Virginia public lands for all. WVPL believes that West Virginia public lands, waters, and the wildlife that inhabit them are intrinsically valuable, and these special areas should be preserved, and where needed, restored.
Here's our vision of how our Wild and Wonderful public lands could be. WVPL envisions a West Virginia with:
- Informed West Virginians passionate about the importance of public lands and waters, advocating to decision makers about public lands issues and protections.
- Access for all people to public lands, especially for currently underserved communities.
- Ecologically sustainable and connected public lands.
- Full protections of biological diversity and unique areas.
- Improved nature-based, non-motorized recreation opportunities compatible with conservation of public lands.
- Robust funding for restoration, management, and acquisition of public lands.
