On episode 90 of the Green Root Podcast—the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance—we peek behind the green curtain to uncover the REAL reasons why we keep losing our public lands to more logging, mining, drilling, and grazing, with Denise Boggs, director of Conservation Congress (conservationcongress-ca.org).

Host Josh Schlossberg talks with Denise about how:

-Large, corporate-funded foundations have hamstrung public lands advocacy

-Billions of dollars have propped up “environmental groups” that not only don’t protect public lands from extractive industries but advocate for corporate interests
