Environmental Justice & Equity in Minnesota

Clean Water believes that health and quality of life should not be determined by your zip code, and every community in the state of Minnesota deserves to have their health and environmental safety treated with equity and integrity. We stand in solidarity and working with residents and allies to address decades of systemic injustice, bringing decision making power back to communities, and providing essential and necessary protections against pollution.

Data Centers in Minnesota

Data centers are rapidly expanding across the country, but these facilities require millions of gallons of water each year for cooling, as well as significant amounts of electricity to operate. Clean Water Action partners with impacted communities and coalition allies in Minnesota to raise awareness and advance innovative policies that safeguard our water and public health.

Combatting the Lead Problem in Minnesota

Clean Water Action Minnesota is working to advocate for funding and programs to improve lead remediation efforts at all levels. This includes education, advocacy, and community powerbuilding. We are committed to fighting for lead abatement and removal until the problem has been completely eliminated.
