Land supports life. Land that is undeveloped keeps air and water clean for living things. That land, with its grasses and forests and rocky hillsides, filters toxins, pollution, and foreign matter from those elements necessary for life.

Land supports livelihoods. In particular, the scenic beauty of the Thousand Islands attracts people who want to live here, and to visit here. Those people build houses, buy good & services, rent hotel rooms and generally support the economy of the region.

Land supports wildlife. Many species are experiencing a loss of habitat because of increased development or changes in agricultural practices. Conserving land in its natural state protects wildlife habitats and species populations.

Land provides recreation. The modern world is full of stresses and demands on our time. We have to carve out opportunities to be with family, to have fun and to achieve balance in our daily lives. The recreational opportunities provided by a natural landscape – hiking and biking, swimming and kayaking – are essential to a healthy lifestyle.
