Conservation in 2023 with Gabriella Hoffman
Show Notes:
Gabriella Hoffman is the host of the District of Conservation podcast. She’s also a media strategist, consultant, and award-winning outdoor writer based in the Washington D.C. metro area. Since 2016, Gabriella has been a consultant to various non-profit organizations, political campaigns, small businesses and start-ups, and veteran-owned companies. She’s worked on all kinds of media projects, ranging from radio and public relations to op-ed writing.
As it relates to conservation, Gabriella’s one of the few journalists in D.C who actively hunts and fishes. She’s been fishing for most of her life and started hunting about five years ago. Gabriella shares some great insights as to what’s trending and we kick off by talking about the long game anti-hunting groups, or “preservationists” seem to be playing. Hunters aren’t always painted in the best light, and preservationists have won the narrative. However, there’s been a renewed interest in hunting lately and opinions are starting to change.
Gabriella also shares information about the Equal Access to Justice Act and how it has empowered environmentalists to sue to stop hunting activities and true conservation. We talk about how conservationists can fight back, even though it’s a bit of an uphill climb. Gabriella and I discuss wildlife management issues, how hunters can use their social media platforms to bring awareness to issues, and how anti-hunting organizations make money from lawsuits to raise funds.
What’s Inside:
- How preservationists shape the anti-hunting narrative and how opinions are shifting.
- How environmentalists use the Equal Access to Justice Act to raise funds.
- How hunters can use their platforms to bring awareness to issues.
