Earth Justice

Earth Justice is the largest non-profit environmental law organization in America. The mission of Earth Justice is to protect wildlife, push for healthier communities and promote clean energy.

"We wield the power of law and the strength of partnership to protect people’s health, to preserve magnificent places and wildlife, to advance clean energy, and to combat climate change. We are here because the earth needs a good lawyer."

Earth Justice has been working diligently with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to ensure that our waterways are kept free of pollution and provide us all with clean drinking water.

The Clean Water Act was passed by Congress in 1972 to protect our waters. Clean water is just one of the many causes Earth Justice works to implement and defend.

Earth Justice is also working to advocate for communities of color impacted by climate change and other environmental concerns. They are hoping to promote diversity, equity and inclusion.

"“Achieving greater diversity, equity, and inclusion in everything we do is inextricably linked to our mission to protect our planet and defend the rights of all people to a healthy environment.”"

That’s why this organization make efforts to be inclusive in their organizational structure, board of directors staff and directors.
