Environmental public relations (PR) is a complex arena and Landis has over 33 years of experience with environmental/green clients.

We have worked with clients in all aspects of the environmental category, including land trusts, energy, non-profits, consumer goods and services, autonomous (green) technology and transportation.

Environmental PR requires professionals to understand both the sustainability/consumer side and the category-specific issues such as climate change. Environmental public relations also requires an understanding of governmental practices, climate science and processes such as recycling/repurposing.

 

Let's Talk Environmental PR

“It’s gratifying to do this important environmental work, but also to work with partners like LCI who know us well enough to position our stories so well with the media, drop everything when opportunity strikes and also take the time to celebrate when things go right.”

Since 1918, Save the Redwoods League protected 216,000 acres of redwood forests from logging/real estate development, creating more than 60 public parks. In 2019, the League sought to protect the largest remaining privately owned giant sequoia property – Alder Creek’s 530 acres in California. The real estate deal closed in August 2019 and the League had until December 31 to raise $15.65 million to protect the property. The League asked Landis to increase awareness of Alder Creek, support the fundraising effort and educate the public about the need to protect redwood trees.

The Alder Creek campaign for Save the Redwoods League had a singular goal: to raise public awareness and support a $15.65 fundraising campaign to protect the largest remaining privately owned grove of giant sequoias, the largest trees on the planet. Among the barriers the team sought to overcome: educating the public about the need for conserving the property in order to raise more than $15 million in a four-month period.

With broad potential support identified, the League asked Landis to activate these potential donors via a strategic media outreach campaign to support one of the largest private donor-focused fundraising campaigns in the nonprofit’s 101-year history.
