Our impact
For more than 30 years, we’ve been fighting for environmental justice.
We’ve had some incredible successes inside and outside the courtroom for the people, places and wildlife we love.
Legal cases
“When governments fail to protect our threatened species, it falls to community groups and public interest lawyers to hold them to account in the courts.
As the extinction crisis accelerates, it’s vital that our environment laws work to protect what is left.”
Danya Jacobs, Special Counsel
