Grading Obama on Conservation: A Review of 2009 Policy Accomplishments
When Obama and the Democrats won big in 2008, the conservation movement emerged from the dark ages of the Bush Era with high hopes for a policy renaissance. Now that 2009 has passed, we consult with 6 leading conservation groups about their view of the past year. Each organization gave us input on what they saw as 2009 policy achievements and shortcomings. We conclude that 2009 has been a huge comeback year, but more progress is needed.
