Our Children’s Earth Foundation has always been primarily an advocacy organization, mostly staffed by lawyers and non-attorney J.D.s with expertise in enforcing environmental laws and advocating for necessary actions by environmental agencies to protect our shared resources. 

Our organizational mission also includes an emphasis on public outreach and education, which we achieve through supporting films, planning and attending outreach events, forging strategic partnerships, and by creating and sharing resources with people and groups that are leading environmental advocacy efforts in their communities.

Now more than ever, concerned citizens and residents should communicate with officials in our legislatures and agencies, and urge them to take all possible steps toward protecting natural resources, public health, and the environment at large. Information is power, but far too often the legal and regulatory systems that we depend on for environmental protection are effectively closed off to the people they are meant to serve. 

It is especially critical for people in communities impacted most heavily by pollution to be informed about environmental issues and how they can effectively engage with the legal and governmental systems that are in charge of protecting their local resources, ecosystems, and health. Working class people and people of color are by far the most impacted by pollution demographically, and children and seniors are the most vulnerable to suffer serious health problems related to pollution.
