Tax incentives offset some of that loss in property value, making conservation a viable option for more landowners.

PUBLIC FUNDING
Public funding for land conservation brings an impressive return on investment. Our natural resources provide immense benefits — like clean water supplies, food security, flood control, outdoor recreation, public health, educational opportunities, and so much more. They also help to grow our economy. WHAT WE DO | LAND TRUST ALLIANCE The Land Trust Alliance is the voice of the land trust community. As the national leader in policy, standards, education and training, we work passionately to support land trusts so they can save and secure more lands now and for future generations. CONSERVATION OPTIONS The most common way to protect land is by “conservation easement.” A conservation easement (also known as a conservation restriction or conservation agreement) is a voluntary, legal agreement between a landowner and a land trust or government agency that permanently limits uses of the land in order to protect its conservation values.FEDERAL PROGRAMS

WHAT WE DO | LAND TRUST ALLIANCE The Land Trust Alliance is the voice of the land trust community. As the national leader in policy, standards, education and training, we work passionately to support land trusts so they can save and secure more lands now and for future generations.PUBLIC FUNDING
Public funding for land conservation brings an impressive return on investment. Our natural resources provide immense benefits — like clean water supplies, food security, flood control, outdoor recreation, public health, educational opportunities, and so much more. They also help to grow our economy. CONSERVATION OPTIONS The most common way to protect land is by “conservation easement.” A conservation easement (also known as a conservation restriction or conservation agreement) is a voluntary, legal agreement between a landowner and a land trust or government agency that permanently limits uses of the land in order to protect its conservation values.FEDERAL PROGRAMS
Federal Land Conservation Programs The federal government is a vital source of funding for land and natural resource conservation in America — helping to save great parks and public lands, productive farms and ranches, vital wildlife habitat, healthy watersheds and more. Federal funding typically leverages contributions from state, local and private sources — enabling the protection of CONSERVATION DEFENSE Conservation Defense Fund. The Alliance is committed to making sure that land trusts win every precedent-setting case. Our Conservation Defense Fund provides backup for the legal battles that are most important for the land trust community to win.

CONSERVATION DEFENSE The land you save today is the land you will protect tomorrow — and every day after that, forever. Land trusts need to be ready to keep our promises to protect the land whenever it is threatened. So far, major legal challenges have been few and far between, but that’s changing. We expect to see more and more challenges to conservationlands.
