Love It or Lose It – Opinion

There’s a “World Wildlife Fund” PSA that frequently runs on talk radio here in St. Louis. The premise is that our world — nature — is fragile and that we oughtn’t take it for granted:

Nature is not an exception. We all need love in order to flourish. Time is running out to protect our natural world —to stop forest loss, protect our oceans and freshwater, and secure a future for people and wildlife. Nature is in desperate need of our support now more than ever. It’s our choice: Love it or lose it.

WWF’s new PSA campaign, “Love It or Lose It,” shines a light on the interconnected relationship we share with nature and what is at stake if we lose it. Learn more at wwf.org/love.

You might be wondering why I bring this up in RedState. Isn’t this just a nod toward the Church of Climate Change? Is that what we need? Well, arguably, yes — hear me out.

As a conservative, I’m all about Conserving nature, protecting the environment, being wise stewards of the bountiful land we inhabit through God’s grace. So should everyone. Although the overlap with actual goals of Green New Dealists and climate activists may not be as great, it is still a significant amount of shared ground.

That said, it’s the tagline of the campaign that caught my attention this morning as I contemplated what I might say that would resonate with you, our dear readers, and inspire you to invest in what we do here: “Love it or lose it.”

Sites like RedState must wage a constant battle just to get the word out; to share conservative viewpoints and bring fair and honest reporting that hasn’t been extruded through the filter of liberal (and increasingly progressive) narratives. I don’t say this to whine. This is no “Woe is us” plea. We’re here because we want to be here — we believe in what we’re doing. Passionate about our values and dedicated to delivering quality content every day, we are. But we can’t do what we do without you.

You’ve heard from the RedState editorial staff this week the many reasons for subscribing to our VIP program:

  • Jen Van Laar gave you a glimpse into the roadblocks right-of-center outlets like ours regularly run into compliments of self-appointed “fact-checkers.”
  • Brandon Morse stated that establishment media would soon be rid of us.
  • Joe Cunningham shares strategy on how to win culture war.
  • Kira Davis laughed as she observed their base of hatred.

The unenviable task then is to try and follow all that wisdom and wit. What can I say to persuade you in ways you’ve not yet been persuaded?

I’ll just be blunt: We need you. Your enthusiasm is essential. We need your enthusiasm. And if we’re going to be able to withstand the onslaught of social media monoliths and establishment media outfits who’d prefer that we just shut up and go away, we have to find ways around hitching a ride on their one-way tracks. Alternative routes are available through the VIP program. And we’re asking you to help us build it. You see, dear readers, RedState. Is. Infrastructure.

Ok, perhaps not. But if you’re here reading this, that means it’s of some value to you and we humbly invite you to invest in it so that right-leaning voices and viewpoints can be heard far and wide.
