You’re protecting our vital resources and our planet into the future! As we look ahead to our next twenty years together, we must acknowledge the stark reali- ties of the challenges we face. Factory farms are still poisoning communities and running family farms out of business. Big corporations are still trying to privatize our water while polluting our drinking supply with toxic chemicals. And the fossil fuel industry keeps expanding despite yet another year of climate-induced extreme weather, including the hottest summer on record with widespread heat waves, record-breaking thunderstorms and flash flooding, a severe tornado outbreak, and ongoing drought conditions in the western U.S. And we know Trump and his allies will contin- ue putting the interests of polluters ahead of the health and safety of our communities and our planet. Your ongoing commitment to protecting our most precious resources and building a livable future for all is more important than ever. With you, Food & Water Watch will continue to fight back and build the world we all want to live in. Together, we've proven that when we work together, we win. Thank you for all you do!
I learned about Food & Water Watch while working with a group called Save Slippery Rock Creek in Butler County, Pennsylvania. We joined forces to oppose an asphalt plant from being built right up against the creek and successfully brought the Food & Water Watch engaged Ridgefield Memorial High School students for the 2019 " March for our Lungs, " a youth-led march and rally in opposition of the massive fracked gas power plant proposed in North Bergen Township, New Jersey.
