United States
Across this great country, NRDC stands for the rights of all people to clean air, clean water, and healthy communities by protecting the wildlife, landscapes, and natural resources that sustain us all.
Regions
NRDC works to protect both the wilderness and densely populated cities of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
Many of our top priorities—from tackling climate change to defending endangered species—come to a head in this region.
We clean up dirty energy and local rivers, protecting communities and the Great Lakes ecosystem, and promoting policies that boost renewable energy and energy efficiency.
NRDC is working with cities and states in the region to transition to clean energy, promote environmental justice, and protect public lands.
We work with local partners to restore access to power and clean water after Hurricane Maria and ensure a more sustainable future.
States
By helping implement California's standards for energy-efficient appliances, clean cars, and consumer safety, we spur national progress.
NRDC was born in New York, and over the past four decades, our work in this state has anchored our Northeast regional advocacy efforts.
