WHAT’S AT STAKE?

EVERYTHING.

OUR COMMUNITIES

Polluting oil refineries and chemical plants make families sick and wipe entire towns off the map. Black communities are in the bullseye.

OUR STATE

The petrochemical industry accelerates land loss across Louisiana, destroying our coast and causing climate change.

OUR PLANET

Louisiana is a huge contributor to greenhouse gas emissions affecting everyone on the planet. OUR VISION FOR LOUISIANA IS A HEALTHY, PROSPEROUS, POLLUTION-FREE AND JUST STATE, WHERE PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT ARE VALUED OVER PROFIT. SEE WHAT WE'RE DOING TO GET THERE

TAKE ACTION

WHAT’S THAT SMELL? How a simple tool puts the power of air pollution monitoring into the hands of everyday people.

Meet the Bucket

TOGETHER, WE CAN WIN With your help, we’ve battled Big Oil for two decades. Our victories save lives.

Get Involved

STANDING WITH LOUISIANA COMMUNITIES Every day we work to help those relentlessly challenged by petrochemical industry pollution and expansion.

4 Jun 1400779773387980800 Thank you! And if the paper is going to rant about “outsiders,” wouldn’t that apply to Formosa Plastics since it’s a Taiwanese

company? ??

Marguerite Green @Green_for_ag Ok, seriously @NOLAnews and @theadvocatebr? Locals work their butts off to #StopFormosaPlastics and y'all paint it like it's outsiders? Well I live here since the day I was born and so do all of my friends in this fight. Get it right next time.
