CWC Campaigns

California Wild Heritage Campaign
CWC is working hard for the passage of legislation designating new wilderness areas and wild and scenic rivers in California. From the deserts of southern California to northern California's ancient forests, we can and will permanently protect wild California.

Defense of the Wild
Since 1976! CWC has defended wild California from immediate threats, including commercial logging, mining, off-road vehicle abuses, energy extraction, and unwise development. Recent campaigns include opposing the Bush Administration's "No More Wilderness" stance with regard to Bureau of Land Management wildlands. We are also addressing the controversial RS 2477, with which county governments and others are claiming thousands of spurious "rights-of-way" to build roads across our national parks, forests, wilderness, and other public lands.

Desert Advocacy
CWC works for the protection of fragile wild lands in California's Mojave, Colorado (Sonoran), and Great Basin deserts.

Golden State Wilderness Campaign
CWC has launched this campaign to designate and protect wilderness on lands owned by the state of California. We have created maps of potential state wilderness and are now in the process of sending staff and volunteers to field-check areas eligible for wilderness protection.
