Johnson Outdoors, National Wildlife Federation’s ‘Clean Earth Challenge’ Will Inspire Conservation Action, Improve Environmental Health
Johnson Outdoors, a leading global innovator of outdoor recreation equipment and technology, and the National Wildlife Federation, America’s largest and most trusted conservation organization, are teaming up to advance natural resource conservation by creating the Clean Earth Challenge. The Challenge will call on tens of millions of individuals, families, students, teachers, environmentalists and leaders to get outdoors and take simple conservation actions to help improve the health of the planet by collecting 1 million pieces of trash.
“Our commitment to leaving the planet better than we found it has always been at the core of Johnson Outdoors and our family of brands. Now more than ever, it is imperative that we work together with partners like the National Wildlife Federation as well as our consumers to ensure that our natural spaces are healthy and thriving for us and generations to come,” said Helen Johnson-Leipold, chairman and CEO of Johnson Outdoors.
“Cleaning up the waste and pollution that has contaminated our precious natural resources is critical to protecting the health of people and wildlife alike,” said Collin O’Mara, president and CEO of the National Wildlife Federation. “By taking collective action on such a grand scale, we can work collaboratively to right the mistakes of the past and give wildlife the opportunity to thrive in our rapidly changing world. We are thrilled to be working with Johnson Outdoors and can’t wait to see the benefits that this challenge will have on our nation’s incredible wildlife and the habitats they call home.”
