Fourth round winner

           Curt Meine

Curt Meine, a U.S. citizen and resident of Wisconsin, serves biodiversity on a number of fronts.

Curt Meine

He works with the International Crane Foundation and the World Conservation Union’s Crane Specialist Group. Recently he has led an effort to examine the needs of Wisconsin’s fresh water ecosystems. And, in his home community of Sauk Prairie, Wisconsin, Meine has been a leader in developing a community-driven consensus plan for conserving the now-vacant property of the Badger Army Ammunition Plant, a 7,350-acre World War II munitions factory.

Meine has written: “conservation requires solid science, effective policy, and sound technique; but ultimately conservation is a human activity that is undertaken by people whose commitments are shaped by their culture.”
