About Friends of the Earth
At Friends of the Earth Ireland, we campaign for environmental justice and sustainability both at home and internationally. We advocate fair sharing of resources, as too often the poorest communities in the world are denied access to those natural resources most essential to life, while rich countries consume, plunder and pollute recklessly. We understand that there are planetary limits, so we work to unite, inspire and empower people to take action to create a society where everyone can prosper within these limits.
We defend the environment, and champion a healthy, and just world where both people and nature thrive.
