Meet the BoardMembers
Our nearly 100 Environmental Council member organizations are driving impact on the ground every day around issues of public health, energy, urban justice, land protection, water and more. They represent communities from the southern point of the Lower Peninsula all the way to the remote corners of the Upper Peninsula and everywhere in between.
Meet the membersOur staff
When the Environmental Council first began, we had a single staff member. In the 40 years since, we've grown to nearly 20. Together, we build the environmental movement; inform and excite the public; and, of course, make good policy changes happen in Michigan's government.
Meet the staffOur honorees
Lasting environmental protection is earned through a synergy of local activism and institutional leadership, which is why the Environmental Council annually bestows several environmental awards to celebrate outstanding advocates.
