Food and Water Watch

What We Do We unite individuals nationwide to safeguard our food, water, and climate by building political strength. Our efforts span local, state, and federal levels, tackling challenges that others shy away from. Whether it's banning fracking, closing down factory farms, or ensuring access to clean water for communities across the country, we've consistently stood against greedy corporations and irresponsible government actions, achieving victory time and again. We advocate — and succeed — in courts, in Congress, and on the ground in every state. While corporations may hold the financial resources, we believe that real change comes from the power of the people. That’s how we achieve our wins.
