Your Public Lands Are Under Attack
The current administration is dismantling protections for America's most treasured landscapes. We're tracking every threat, every rollback, every acre at risk.
This is not normal.
The current administration has launched an unprecedented assault on America's public lands. National monuments are being reviewed for shrinkage. Oil and gas leases are being fast-tracked on previously protected land. The agencies that manage these places are being gutted from the inside.
This isn't a policy disagreement. This is a fire sale.
We built the Threatened Public Lands Map to make it impossible to look away. Every active threat to every major federal public land in the country, tracked and documented. Because the only thing worse than what's happening is nobody knowing it's happening.
What's at stake right now
Monument Rollbacks
National monuments that took decades to establish are being reviewed for boundary reductions, opening millions of acres to extraction.
Fast-Tracked Leases
Oil, gas, and mining leases are being rushed through on land adjacent to national parks, wilderness areas, and wildlife refuges.
Gutted Agencies
Budget cuts and staffing freezes at the NPS, USFS, and BLM mean fewer rangers, deferred maintenance, and less enforcement.
Regulatory Rollbacks
Environmental review requirements are being weakened, making it easier to approve development with minimal public input.
Fight back. Here's how.
You don't need to be an activist. You just need to give a damn.

Hold Congress Accountable
We scored every member of Congress on how they vote on public lands. Look up yours. Then call their office. One call carries more weight than 100 tweets.

58.5 million acres of national forest are protected from road-building and logging. That protection is under active review. Know what's at stake.

Public comment periods work. When thousands of people show up to oppose a drilling lease, it makes a difference.

Let's act like it.
We're two brothers who've spent our entire adult lives documenting America's public lands. We've seen what's worth protecting. We're not going to watch it disappear quietly.
