You help make our movement to protect the planet possible so we want to give you a look into the community of activists that your generosity powers. Keep an eye on your inbox this month as we share the stories of people like you who are fighting for a better future!
First up, meet Jon, your fellow planet protector and clean energy champion.
Jon didn't come to volunteer with Food & Water Watch with previous experience as a seasoned organizer. He is a building contractor who cares deeply about the climate and wanted to find a way to contribute. And that’s just what he did!
Jon took a leadership role in the campaign to pass the All-Electric Building Act, a law that bans gas hook-ups in new buildings throughout New York State. Jon made calls, wrote op-ed pieces, spoke at public hearings, and more. His hard work with our coalition of activists ensured the state legislature passed the bill last year and got it included in the state budget this year!
This was another exciting accomplishment for Jon after being heavily involved in the fight to ban fracking in New York!
Food & Water Watch and its affiliated organization, Food & Water Action, are advocacy groups with a common mission to protect our food, water and climate.
