John, Factory farms are a huge threat to drinking water. These massive industrial operations produce millions of tons of animal waste every day, contaminating surface water and causing toxic runoff, which ends up in local waterways. Runoff with nitrogen, phosphorus, antibiotics, and other pollutants makes water unsafe for consumption in many communities surrounded by factory farms. And, the health impacts from this type of contamination can be severe. Factory farm pollution has been linked to bacterial diseases like E. coli infections. You have the power to stop factory farms and stop them from spreading disease. Make a gift today to build resilient, healthy, and local food systems, and your gift will be matched at $2-to-$1!

We can and must do better. With your contribution, you’ll be a part of our campaign to: Lobby our representatives to ban factory farms and back legislation that will build up healthy rural communities, not Big Ag giants. Leverage our legal team’s power in the courts to protect factory farm whistle-blowers and the public’s right to know what happens inside these facilities and take mega polluters to court. Build grassroots power nationwide to ban factory farms and transition to a more sustainable, resilient farm system.
Thank you for protecting our food, water, and future with a matched gift today! All gifts made by August 3rd will be matched $2-to-$1.
