Who we are

There’s something special about our country — and so much worth protecting and preserving for future generations. From stunning waterways like Chesapeake Bay and the Great Lakes, to beloved national parks like Acadia and Mount Rainier, America’s natural wonders enrich our lives in countless ways.

Wendell Berry said, “the care of the Earth is our most ancient and most worthy, and after all, our most pleasing responsibility.” Through your support of Environment America you can put those words into action, protecting the places we love and promoting core environmental values, such as clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and clean energy to power our lives. With 29 state affiliates* and members and supporters in every state, together we focus on timely, targeted action that wins tangible improvements in the quality of our environment and our lives.

Our staff

What we do

Funded by supporters like you, we research the challenges confronting our environment and educate the public about what’s at stake. Through our research reports, news conferences, interviews with reporters, op-ed pieces, letters to the editor and more, we raise awareness of environmental issues and promote sensible solutions. Our canvassers meet people where they are — in public places or door to door — raising awareness, recruiting new supporters and activists, and securing funds to support our work.

We make the case for our environment and help people like you make an impact — through petitions, emails, letters, phone calls and more, all delivered to the right people just when it matters most.
