Friends of the Earth

Our Mission

Friends of the Earth is an advocacy organization dedicated to protecting the environment, human communities, and healthy life on our planet. We are the U.S. voice of an international network in 76 countries across five continents. For more than 40 years, Friends of the Earth has been the leader in aggressively confronting the root causes of climate change, in stopping wasteful government handouts to polluting industries, and in stemming damaging corporate exploitation that places profit above human and environmental wellbeing. Friends of the Earth promotes clean and sustainable energy, fair solutions to the climate crisis, responsible use of technology, and protection of the earth’s natural treasures.
