520 For decades, activists have relied on federal and state
legislation to fight for a cleaner environment. And for
decades, they've been fighting a losing battle. The sad
truth is, our laws are designed to accommodate pollution
rather than prevent it. It's no wonder people feel
powerless when it comes to preserving the quality of their
water, air, public parks, and special natural spaces. But
there is a solution, argues veteran environmentalist Maya
K. van Rossum: bypass the laws and turn to the ultimate
authority--our state and federal constitutions. In 2013,
van Rossum and her team won a watershed legal victory that
not only protected Pennsylvania communities from ruthless
frackers but affirmed the constitutional right of people
in the state to a clean and healthy environment. Following
this victory, van Rossum inaugurated the Green Amendment
movement, dedicated to empowering every American community
to mobilize for constitutional change. We all have the
right to pure water, clean air, and a healthy environment.
It's time to claim that right--for our own sake and that
of future generations.
