Profile
Robert Dewey has always been interested in wildlife and wild
places, but a tour of the West’s great national parks during
college, and his opposition to the then Reagan Administration’s
environmental policies, prompted his career in conservation.
Now
as Defenders’ vice president of government relations and external
affairs, Robert still finds it motivating to work against government
policies with which he disagrees.
“Protecting wildlife habitat is
the most important thing we can do to ensure the safety of
endangered species — making it happen in the current hostile
political climate is perhaps our biggest legislative challenge.”
Robert says his 11-year-old daughter, an ardent conservationist
herself, helps to motivate him through what seem like insurmountable
political challenges.
“As a parent, I’m compelled to
leave a legacy of wildlife and wild places for my daughter and for
other future generations.
And what’s really encouraging is that poll
after poll shows that most Americans agree that we should protect
our natural resources and our wildlife heritage.
I’m passionate
about bringing that point home to decision-makers in D.C.”
Robert has a master of studies in law from the Vermont
Law School.
