ConservAmerica Launches Roosevelt Conservation Fellowship Program

Washington, DC - ConservAmerica is pleased to announce the launch of its new Roosevelt Conservation Fellowship program, which welcomes inaugural fellows Patrick Hynes and Alina Clough. This initiative aims to bring new voices and perspectives to the dialogue on commonsense, market-based solutions for today's pressing environmental issues.

"We believe that the key to addressing environmental and energy challenges lies in collaboration and fresh thinking," said ConservAmerica President Jeff Kupfer. "Through our Fellowship program, we are committed to nurturing the next wave of conservation leaders and empowering them to use their voices to drive meaningful change. We are excited to welcome Patrick and Alina to the team and look forward to working with them.”

Patrick Hynes writes about energy and environmental policy from a free-market perspective, covering a range of issues including the energy transition, habitat management, and sustainable fishing practices. He also writes for Generation Atomic, focusing on advancing pro-nuclear energy legislation across the United States. Patrick previously served as an editorial associate at American Conservation Coalition, and as an energy/environment commentator with Young Voices. Prior to embarking on a career in policy, he worked at Hogan Lovells as a conflicts analyst. He graduated from Southern Methodist University with a BBA in Finance.
