- MAGIC will work to connect and expand the greenway system in Maryland to provide corridors for wildlife and plant propagation. MAGIC recognizes such connections are critical to providing long-term vitality and diversity of plants and animals. Research has shown that biodiversity decreases in isolated parks or small tracts of protected land. MAGIC's primary focus will be:````````- To promote the development of a system of interconnected parks and other protected conservation land, as habitat for wildlife and plants.````- To provide wide wildlife corridors between fragmented tracts of protected land to encourage propagation of wildlife and plants.````- To protect watersheds from erosion and pollutants to insure clean water is available for animal and human consumption.````- To provide wildlife passages, under or over roads where they cross wildlife corridors to enable animals or trails users to cross roads safely.````- To serve as a clearinghouse and coordinating office on conservation policy matters, on scientific and technical data relating to conservation, and on meetings and actions concerned with conservation and protection of all species.````- To work with our members, and like-minded government and private agencies in furtherance of our defined goals.````````Membership will consist of a consortium of like-minded organizations and citizens working cooperatively to achieve our stated objectives and goals. ``Legal Status MAGIC is a 501(c)(3) organization, incorporated in the state of Maryland.
