Energy Development - Implications for Idaho's
Rangelands The impacts of energy development are being felt all across the west. Rangelands cover over half of Idaho's land area and have the potential to provide significant renewable and non-renewable energy resources to current and future generations. However, changes in land use bring trade offs that have both direct and indirect effects on the integrity of these ecosystems. This meeting provided a snapshot of current and future energy demands in Idaho and perspectives on the challenges ahead as we embark on an energy future that is certain to rely on resources derived from rangelands. This meeting was held as a webinar at 5 satellite locations throughout Idaho. Session recordings are available below.
