Friends of the Earth Canada

Description

Friends of the Earth Canada stands on guard for Mother Earth and her people — taking action to confront polluters, holding governments to account for their promises and insisting they enforce laws. We insist that each and every resident of Canada deserves a clean, safe environment and can exercise his or her environmental rights to make it so. We stand in solidarity with vulnerable people and communities to confront the impacts of climate change and toxic pollution. Friends of the Earth Canada (FoE) has grown from a small group of volunteers in 1978 to one of the country’s most important voices speaking out on environmental issues. We are affiliated with the world’s largest grassroots environmental network — Friends of the Earth International — which has 75 national member groups and some 5,000 local activist groups on every continent.
