Every Minnesotan deserves clean water to drink & protection from toxic chemicals. We must defend the laws, help legislators stand firm in upholding them, & protect our communities from toxic PFAS. These hard-won protections shouldn't be weakened. #mnleg

Did you know that household waste in the US increases by 25% between Thanksgiving and New Years? Thankfully new laws will make it easier for Minnesotans to reduce waste and recycle more.

Minnesotans may disagree about many things, but love for our Great Outdoors is a shared value we all believe in. And we vote that way. The lottery amendment passed yesterday with over 77% support. 🌲💧🦌

Day 2 of the Lottery Campaign Kick-off! Today we're in Duluth, joining the @mngreatoutdoors coalition to share the importance of voting YES in November to keep the lottery working for our Great Outdoors.

[Conservation MN @ConservationMN]

Lottery funding is critical to projects that conserve and protect our water, land, & wildlife. In November, this funding will be on the ballot. We joined the @mngreatoutdoors kickoff today to encourage you to vote YES to keep the lottery working for our Great Outdoors.

[Conservation MN @ConservationMN]

The @echopress editorial board supports the lottery vote happening on November's ballot. "We urge all residents to vote "yes" on the ballot question... A measure that protects our lakes & national resources is something that should never be skipped." https://t.co/p4SdCKPDin

The #MNlottery funds over $80 million dollars a year to protect MN's Great Outdoors. Here's an awesome example of the impact these projects have.

[Voyageurs Wolf Project @VoyaWolfProject]

We captured some really neat footage of lynx this past year on our cameras but this is definitely the coolest. In fact, might be the best video of a lynx we have ever captured, not least because the lynx decided sit right in front of the camera...

Thanks to the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund for their continued support of the project, which allows us to capture, document, and share neat footage of the wildlife in northern Minnesota!

[Conservation MN @ConservationMN]

🙌👍🙌

[MN ENRTF @mnenrtf]

The LCCMR today voted to recommend over $103 million in funding from the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund, which, if approved by the legislature, would provide support for 125 projects across Minnesota that benefit MN's environment and natural resources.

[Conservation MN @ConservationMN]

Great news. 👏We applaud the state’s commitment to helping communities as we take important steps to transition to 100% clean energy.
