The California Council of Land Trusts is pleased to announce the release of "Land Conservation in Southern California: An Essential Investment in Our Future".  It focuses on the public benefits of conservation to southern California communities and the need for greater investment in conservation -- as demonstrated through profiles of land trusts' work in the region.  This is the first in a series entitled "Saving the California Dream" that will examine each region of the state.  Many thanks to the land trusts who assisted us in this effort.
