Green Action

One of the country's oldest watershed organizations, Charles River Watershed Association (CRWA) was formed in 1965 in response to public concern about the declining condition of the Charles.

Florida Defenders of the Environment has been working to protect freshwater resources, conserve public lands, and provide quality environmental education since 1969. We also explore the links between environmentalism and the arts.

Our newsletter, The Monitor, provides insight and information about Florida environmental issues. It's available free at our website, at https://fladefenders.org

Conservation Colorado is at the front lines of every fight working to protect the air, land, water, and people of Colorado by advocating for necessary policies, mobilizing Coloradans, and electing conservation-minded policymakers.

Despite powerful interests who are constantly pushing to put pollution and profit over public health, we have a long and accomplished history of working collectively at the State Capitol, establishing strategic partnerships, and collaborating with allies for success on key environmental concerns, including:

Our Mission: Empowering MA residents, government, and business leaders to keep our communities clean and beautiful.

We believe that litter, illegal dumpsites, graffiti, and vacant lots not only hurt property values and discourage economic development, but they also reduce a community’s collective self-esteem. Litter begets litter and blight begets blight.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. Residents can take ownership of the appearance of their communities. That’s where Keep Massachusetts Beautiful can help.

Ride Illinois is a nonprofit organization working for all Illinois bicyclists, promoting bicycle access, education, and safety.

The Texas Campaign for the Environment is a non-profit organization that empowers Texans to fight pollution through sustained grassroots campaigns that successfully shift corporate and governmental policy.

Our small but mighty group of activists, currently based in Austin, Houston and D/FW, pounds the pavement, rain or shine, year-round, to knock on doors and make contact with folks about public health and environmental issues.

Together, we have accomplished many important environmental victories over the years, such as:

The Wetlands Conservancy (TWC) is the only organization in Oregon dedicated to promoting community and private partnerships to permanently protect and conserve Oregon’s greatest wetlands – our most biologically rich and diverse lands.

For more than 30 years, The Wetlands Conservancy has educated and assisted landowners, neighborhood groups, land trusts, and watershed councils on local stewardship to support fish and wildlife, clean water, open space and people’s appreciation of nature.

Openlands protects the natural and open spaces of northeastern Illinois and the surrounding region to ensure cleaner air and water, guard natural habitats and wildlife, and help balance and enrich our lives.

Our activities include helping communities become greener, advocating for open spaces, strengthening access to local foods, restoring native landscapes, using nature to unite communities and expanding our urban forest.
