Join hundreds of environmentalists from across the state in advocating for measures to protect our air, water, land and health. No experience needed!  New York's environmental resources are being threatened now as they never have been before.

Hear from government and environmental leaders, learn about current legislation, and educate your state lawmakers on environmental issues that are important to you.

Hundreds of citizens from every corner of New York State will meet with their state lawmakers and show their support for the environment.
 This year's Earth Day Lobby Day will focus on the following critical issues:
- global warming
- electronic waste recycling
- natural gas drilling in the Marcellus Shale
- strengthening SEQRA
- funding for parks and environmental protection
