The Nature Conservancy

A very professional and caring scientific and environmental preservation non-profit.

First, let me say I admire and support the work of The Nature Conservancy. My issue with this organization has to do with allocation of funds, I applied months ago for a position with the Ga. chapter. I was floored when I googled the location of this chapter - downtown Atlanta. The marble floored, gleaning high-rise location, in prime rental space, is no place for a non-profit organization that should be watching every dollar. It definitely soured my opinion of this organization and I personally don't feel my contribution should be going for over-the-top office space.

The Nature Conservancy seems to me like a scam. I donated to them once after an airline sent me an email saying that I could donate for carbon offsets. Ever since then, my mailbox has been flooded with lots of mail from them. Each mail piece has lots of paper, and once they even sent me a thick booklet. It seemed funny to me that an organization that supposedly cares about the environment uses so many resources (think: trees for paper, fuel to deliver mail, etc). I requested via Paper Karma (which is an awesome organization, go Paper Karma!) to take me off their mailing list, and they did not. Then, I directly replied to one of NC's mailings asking to be taken off their list, and they still did not. Then, my husband joked that NC might be a scam. I did a little research and found that they have oil company owners and the like on their board. They've also drilled oil on Nature Conservancy land. There's lots of dirt on them. Go ahead and research for yourself.
