In 1993 Jon Marvel co-founded a non-profit organization Western Watersheds Project to challenge the destructive business of public lands ranching, a land use that has negatively affected more of the American west than any other human activity. Jon retired as executive director of WWP on March 1, 2014 but continues as the WWP Board member for the Sagebrush Habitat Conservation Fund. The Fund seeks to negotiate voluntary buy-out and permanent retirement of grazing allotments in sage-steppe landscapes across the west. The Fund has already permanently retired over 140,000 acres of public lands from livestock use.
