9 New Stories - What REAL Environmental & Conservation Leadership Looks Like In PA
Photo

Nine stories in the PA Environment Digest-- all new just this week-- profile the leadership demonstrated by former Governors, researchers, writers, citizen activists and a college over the last 130 years in Pennsylvania.

There were many, many more of these stories in 2020….. 233 to be precise.  Read more here.

As you read these stories that document not only leadership, but how environmental progress has been made by building on the accomplishments of those who came before, consider the record of political leaders today [the NAUGHTY List] and what they could achieve [the NICE List] if they put their energy to it.

And further, put this in the context of a poll released in September, well after the pandemic began, that found 90 percent of voters want the Senate and House to provide more funding for critical environmental, recreation and conservation programs-- and they are willing to pay for it.   Read more here.

Margaret Mead-- another Pennsylvanian-- said something we all should remember as we begin 2021-- “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.”
