Civic Engagement and Democracy in Pennsylvania
Clean Water Action endorses and works to elect candidates at all levels of government that share our priorities to better protect our environment and safeguard our public health.
Protecting Pennsylvania from Oil and Gas Development
Fracking operations have already contaminated drinking water; dumped wastewater on roads and in to waterways; and crisscrossed Pennsylvania with pipelines. Clean Water Action is working to protect sensitive areas like parks and forests, prevent roll back of safeguards and transition Pennsylvania to a renewable energy future.
Protecting Pennsylvania's Water
Clean Water Action is working to protect our waterways from development using zoning as a tool for implementing buffer requirements, as well as promoting green infrastructure to protect and improve water quality.
Reducing Waste in Pennsylvania Communities
Plastic pollution affects everyone by reducing our quality of life, blighting our neighborhoods, and contributing to water pollution and the degradation of our planet. Clean Water Action is working to reduce single use plastic bags as a first step toward addressing broader plastic litter and illegal dumping issues.
Protecting Pennsylvania Communities from the Hazards of Lead
Clean Water Action is working to protect public health by reducing lead exposure through drinking water and in paint, dust, and soil, and by educating Pennsylvanians on how to identify and reduce lead in their communities.
