For 45 years, the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) has provided vital protections for dolphins, whales, and seals in U.S. waters.

Unfortunately, a new congressional bill threatens these safeguards. It would facilitate harmful activities like seismic airgun blasting—a loud, dangerous process used for oil and gas exploration—making it easier to injure these iconic animals.

Environmental protection agencies, designed to regulate polluting industries, have been compromised. Legal scholar Mary Christina Wood suggests that the judicial system and future generations may ultimately save us.

Wood shared this perspective with Bill Moyers, emphasizing the need for intervention beyond current regulatory bodies. (Published January 2, 2015)

Imagine living beside the world's largest freshwater body, yet being unable to afford its use. This is the reality for Highland Park, Michigan residents, who face soaring water costs and demand accountability for these rising expenses.

This critical situation highlights issues of water access, community rights, sustainability, and civil rights, with particular relevance to women's rights, government responsibility, and local activism in Michigan. The topic is explored in a film by Liz Miller.

Environmental protection agencies, created to regulate polluting industries, have been compromised. These bodies, meant to safeguard our environment, have been "hijacked" by the very industries they were designed to oversee.

Legal scholar Mary Christina Wood tells Bill Moyers that our judicial system, along with future generations, may ultimately be our best hope. She suggests they will save us from ourselves.

Sophie Tipper, passionate about environmental policy since middle school, joined the Colorado Youth Advisory Council (COYAC) in July 2023. Noticing youth were absent from state environmental task forces, she and Ashna Shah developed a policy memo recommending youth advisors for the Colorado Department of Public Health's Environmental Justice Board. This led to drafting SB25-055, a bill requiring two youth members on the board. Despite a sponsor's election defeat, Tipper secured new support, and the bill was introduced to the Colorado legislature in January 2025.

SB25-055 subsequently passed and was signed into law by Governor Jared Polis in May. Tipper, now drafting a plastic pollution bill, believes youth advocacy empowers young people to drive real policy change. She hopes to inspire similar youth-led environmental initiatives nationwide.

CCL's Legislative Coordinator, Morgan McCue, provides a legislative update on the new "Save Our Future Act." Introduced on June 16 by Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Brian Schatz, this landmark carbon pricing policy is similar to the 2019 American Opportunity Carbon Fee Act.

The legislation sets an ambitious carbon price to reduce U.S. emissions. It also addresses environmental justice, invests in coal communities for a clean energy transition, and protects American households with regular rebates and funding for further reductions.
