Northern NM Conservation Project :

 "The Northern New Mexico Conservation Project hopes to educate people about the importance of preserving natural resources, especially as related to oil and gas development. In doing so, we have found that it is important to inform people about the unfavorable impacts when natural resources are exploited for financial gain without strict regulations to minimize the effects on our water, air, environment, and health."
