Current Actions

Conserve Southwest Utah (CSU) is committed to protecting Washington County’s intricate desert ecosystem by addressing a wide range of conservation issues.

 

Our efforts wouldn't be possible without the support of people who share our vision for a thriving, protected Southern Utah. We're deeply grateful for a community that cares as much as we do and invite you to get involved in our work. 

There are countless ways to make an impact—signing a petition, volunteering, or simply committing to use less water. Explore some of CSU’s current efforts below.
