Environmental laws exist to protect our irreplaceable wildlife and wild places, but these laws mean little if they are not upheld. Earthjustice enforces laws to ensure that species and wild ecosystems can freely exist and adapt to a changing world. It’s an ongoing, evolving effort, and we’re here for the long haul.
