Environmental Progress is a Berkeley-based organization that focuses on incubating ideas, leaders, and movements for nature, peace, and freedom for all. Through cutting-edge research, organizing efforts, and grant-making, they aim to defend and strengthen the pillars of civilization. They are proud co-founders of the California Peace Coalition and Stand Up for Nuclear, and also support initiatives such as the Wildlife Energy Conservation Coalition in their mission to protect endangered wildlife and communities worldwide.
One of the key issues Environmental Progress addresses is the threat posed to endangered species by the construction of wind turbines. They highlight the impact on the North Atlantic right whale population, with only 22 observed births in the past four calving seasons, significantly lower than the previous average. They also draw attention to the risk faced by whooping cranes due to collision with power lines and wind infrastructure. Through their work, Environmental Progress aims to raise awareness and advocate for sustainable solutions that prioritize the protection of both wildlife and communities.
