Bridget Moynahan Instagram – @patagonia is the hero of all companies! • #repost @goodnews_movement An 8,000-acre swath of southern Alabama clasped by the Alabama and Tombigbee Rivers has been acquired by The Nature Conservancy, which pulled together $15 million to protect the “Land between the Rivers” that is viewed as one of the most ecologically diverse areas in the world. Safeguarding the land from logging and development became a reality thanks to the multi-million dollar collaboration involving The Nature Conservancy in Alabama, Patagonia, and an undisclosed donor who contributed 2/3, $10 million, from their own pocket. “This is one of the most important conservation victories that we’ve ever been a part of,” Mitch Reid, state director for The Nature Conservancy in Alabama said. “It’s protected a vitally important complex of land, almost 8,000 acres, critically important to the health of the Mobile Delta and then, by extension, Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.”
