Allen Report

The Allen Report, formally known as the "Report of the Allen Committee," was published in the early 1970s and addressed concerns about the management and conservation of natural resources in the United States. It emphasized the need for a comprehensive approach to environmental protection, urging for better coordination among federal, state, and local agencies. The report highlighted the interconnectivity of ecological systems and recommended policies to ensure sustainable development, advocating for a balance between economic growth and environmental preservation. Its influence continues to shape discussions on environmental policy and resource management today.
