National Environmental Law Center
NELC is a non-profit litigation center founded in 1990 to enforce anti-pollution laws and protect public health and the environment. NELC attorneys work closely with state and local citizen groups by providing essential legal expertise to bring corporate polluters to justice.
For more than three decades, NELC lawsuits have confronted violators of environmental protection laws, holding polluters accountable and protecting communities and ecosystems throughout the country.
Through membership support, NELC attorneys obtain court orders to stop illegal pollution and secure major penalties against violators of environmental laws. Help us protect public health and the environment by making a tax-deductible contribution.
Our members contribute in many ways. No matter what form your gift takes, it will support NELC’s research and litigation and bring the nation’s worst polluters to justice.
NELC works side by side with environmental groups and public health organizations throughout the country, bringing lawsuits to protect communities and the environment from illegal pollution.
