The nation’s most prominent environmental and conservation groups
have collaborated on a comprehensive
recommendation report for the President-elect’s transition team.

Twenty-nine of the largest environmental groups in the United States issued a report for President-elect Barack Obama outlining how he can
revitalize the economy by protecting our environment. “Our economy is suffering
and so is our environment. The solutions to both go hand-in-hand,” said Larry
Schweiger, president and CEO of National Wildlife
Federation.

“President-elect Obama has kicked the gears of change into
motion. The call for action will echo from the halls of Washington to the capitals of nations around
the world,” said Schweiger, who has been voted in as chair of this national
coalition for the environment. To view the full Transition to Green report, please
