Among there present efforts are successes that draw headlines nationwide and international and local efforts that make a difference in your backyard and those of people a world away.

FoE conducted lab tests that confirmed our suspicion that genetically engineered corn not approved for human consumption was in products on supermarket shelves across the nation.

They also exposed the fact that Enron received $2.5 billion in taxpayer loans funneled through international financial institutions.

In Indiana, they are working with local groups to fight the destructive new-terrain I-69 project. This 140-mile, $1.8 billion highway would demolish thousands of acres of farms and forests and bisect an Amish community.

Over the years, there efforts and those of our supporters mean FoE have been able to: stop over 150 bad dams and water projects worldwide; ban international whaling; oust infamous James Watt; press for landmark regulations of strip mining and oil tankers; reform the World Bank; and eliminate billions in taxpayer subsidies to corporate polluters.
