Increase Local Advocacy for Environmental Justice


Increase Local Advocacy for Environmental Justice
The Issue
Vulnerable communities are often neglected and dismissed due to their lack of resources, which fails to address environmental issues. Although the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) created the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) to ensure society follows and practices the policy, the local level requires additional representation and advocacy from individuals in their own communities. How are you giving back to the world we live in?
By actively participating and challenging proposals and projects in your community, we will highlight the importance of prioritizing environmental justice. We need to ensure that these communities have a voice in environmental decision-making processes to best protect our environment and human health. Increasing our awareness and numbers will raise attention on the national level, ensuring that our concerns are heard by Brenda Mallory, Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality. Your voice matters!
Sign this petition to demand effective and efficient environmental decisions affecting your community.
