Private sugar companies get enormous government handouts via the Farm Bill — to the detriment of clean air and water in Florida. Sign our petition and tell Congress to stop this cycle of abuse.

The fish swimming in our Everglades are poisoned with toxic mercury. The only way to fix this is to regulate runoff from the Everglades Agricultural Area.
Climate change has changed Florida permanently and irreversibly. Friends of the Everglades advocates on behalf of one of the most climate-vulnerable ecosystems in Florida and across the globe. We are on the front lines of advocacy to address climate impacts.
