Description: Lookout Mountain spans over 90 miles across Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia and is known for its rich biodiversity and critical environmental importance. A 58-acre oak-pine forest on the mountain lies between the Chickamauga & Chattanooga National Military Park and the historic St. Elmo neighborhood. The protection of this area by the Lookout Mountain Conservancy ensures habitat connectivity and offers essential living spaces for various wildlife, including eastern box turtles, red-tailed hawks, black bears, and spotted salamanders. Community Effort and Preservation: The St. Elmo Preservation Project, initially aimed at linking local trails, evolved into a community-wide initiative to safeguard forested land threatened by development. The Conservancy’s mission focuses on preserving the scenic, historic, and ecological resources of Lookout Mountain while fostering a safe recreational space for the community. Educational and Employment Opportunities: In partnership with The Howard School, the Conservancy offers employment and scholarships to at-risk teens. These interns gain hands-on experience in ecological conservation and develop valuable skills for their future careers. They play a crucial role in maintaining and restoring forested areas. Environmental and Economic Benefits: The protected property is a vital environmental resource for the local community and the broader tri-state region, providing natural beauty and recreational opportunities. Revenue from the sale of Carbon+ Credits will support ongoing conservation efforts and fund the intern and leadership programs.
