Nevada Conservation League
The political voice of Nevada’s conservation community
Our Priorities
Nevada is at the frontline of the climate crisis. Extreme heat, scorching wildfires, and severe drought continue to threaten our environment, our communities, and our chance of passing a healthy climate on to future generations.
Healthy Climate
Clean Energy
Public Lands
Water Conservation
Wildlife
Healthy Communities
Let’s end our reliance on polluting methane gas in homes.
Methane gas — also known as “natural” gas — is a potent fossil fuel just like coal and oil. Nevada cannot meet its state climate targets without cutting gas use in homes.
Take action to help support the transition to clean energy homes in Nevada — and then spread the word on social media!
