ENVIRONMENT NORTH CAROLINA INC

Raleigh, North Carolina

Our Mission

Environment North Carolina is a statewide, citizen-based environmental advocacy organization. We believe thereâ€™s something special about North Carolina â€” something worth protecting and preserving for future generations. Whether it's watching for sea turtles at Cape Hatteras or taking in the views along the Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina's natural wonders enrich our lives in countless ways. Yet the places we love and the environmental values so many of us share are too often threatened by powerful industries, shortsighted politicians and more. Defending our environment requires independent research, tough-minded advocacy and spirited grassroots action. Thatâ€™s the idea behind Environment North Carolina. Together with thousands of supporters from all walks of life, we take the kind of action that wins tangible results for our environment.

Who We Are

unded by supporters like you, we research the challenges confronting North Carolina's environment and educate the public about what's at stake. Through our research reports, news conferences, interviews with reporters, op-ed pieces, letters to the editor and more, we raise awareness of environmental issues and promote sensible solutions. Our canvassers meet people where they are â€” in public places or door to door â€” raising awareness, recruiting new supporters and activists, and raising funds to support our work. When decisions are being made about North Carolina's environment, our elected officials hear plenty from the oil and gas companies, developers and other powerful interests. We make the case for our environment and help people like you make your voice heard, through petitions, emails, letters, phone calls and more, all delivered to the right people just when it matters most.
