Using science and professional experience in decision-making while maintaining trust and credibility as a science-based organization

Wisconsin’s Green Fire strives to infuse the best science and professional experience available into decisions on natural resource management to sustain Wisconsin’s natural resources for this generation and generations to come, while maintaining scientific credibility.
