The Sonoma Land Trust and Save the Redwoods League have announced the acquisition of the 1,517-acre Monte Rio Redwoods Expansion property. This initiative aims to protect vital forest lands in Sonoma County, enhancing regional wildlife connectivity and supporting California's 30x30 initiative to conserve at least 30% of Earth's lands by 2030. The property will link over 22,000 acres of contiguous habitat, making it a crucial part of conservation efforts and addressing climate change impacts while safeguarding endangered species.
The Monte Rio Redwoods expansion is a cornerstone of regional conservation efforts, connecting thousands of acres of conserved lands, unifying decades of commitments to protecting natural resources.
California is making strong progress towards 30×30, but millions of acres still must be conserved in less than five years to address climate change impacts.
