Earthjustice, US’s largest nonprofit environmental law firm - Florida Office
Earthjustice is the nation’s largest nonprofit environmental law organization. While we work on all local environmental issues, our Florida office is particularly dedicated to curbing the contamination of the state's waters by sewage, fertilizer, and manure.
Florida’s waters are critically important to the state’s economic well-being and its residents’ quality of life. But water quality across the state has been declining for decades, due to unchecked agricultural pollution, rapid development, and cattle operations. For decades, we have worked to strengthen regulations to clean up Florida’s waterways, ensure that government and industry are held accountable, and keep the public informed and engaged.
Our work includes:
Stopping the poisoning of waterways with phosphorus and nitrogen pollution
Everglades ecosystem protection and restoration
Protecting Lake Okeechobee
Reopening the Ocklawaha River to sturgeon and manatees
Preserving public access to Fisheating Creek
We have a vision of Florida waters restored to the astounding natural resource they once were. We're working for a future where the state’s aquatic ecosystems function naturally and healthily, support wildlife populations, help to meet the state’s drinking water needs, and offer safe and beautiful places for recreational activities.
