Our Mission
As residents of communities surrounding the Hudson River, our mission is to investigate and share information regarding the industrial development of our region and bring light to potential sources of air, water, and noise pollution.
After decades of pollution and then an exhaustive effort to rid the river of contaminating PCB's, our goal is to maintain the beauty and majesty of the Hudson River, and harness its true potential for economic growth and ecofriendly development.

On the outskirts of the beloved Adirondacks, our area receives little protection against parasitic industrialization that is threatening the health of our communities and environment. Rich in diversity and natural resources, these habitats are crucial to the survival of endemic and migrating species but also a target for companies looking to profit off the lower social economic status of the region. Throughout my career I have engaged our youth in civic actions to advocate for our health and for the earth and now I am continuing that path full circle to the community itself.
