As Chief Conservation Officer, Marshall Johnson leads the conservation work at Audubon to address the dual crises of unprecedented climate change and biodiversity facing birds. He spearheaded a grasslands project that conserved nearly 500,000 acres. He also led America’s largest regenerative, bird-friendly land certification effort for protecting North America’s fragile grasslands. He helped to create 36 new nature parks across North Dakota, creating safe passage for migratory birds and returning 2,000 acres back to nature. Marshall is a graduate of the University of Minnesota and is based in Fargo, ND.
