Protect What You Love
Good Stewards protect and restore our environment through actions that build informed and resilient communities. The best way to sustainably protect what we love is by creating a culture that appreciates and respects all we have on Earth, including each other.
We recognize that environmental work cannot be completed with tunnel vision. There are many important interconnections involved, such as environmental justice and systemic racism, and we cannot ignore their significance or the parts they must play in this work.
We believe access to a clean environment is a human right, but not everyone is treated fairly in their pursuit of happiness. Those voices are the ones we seek to support and amplify the most.
