Indiana Deserves Clean Water.
Water is essential to life. And clean water is essential to our health – here in Indiana and across the globe. We need it to drink, to grow food, to swim and play in and to wash toxins from our bodies.
Which is why it is so crucial to keep our water supplies clean and healthy.
Conserve Indiana was established to fight for a clean and safe water supply. We rally to educate politicians and the public about the importance of protecting drinking-water sources.
We promote and demand the protection of Indiana’s wetlands, streams, and rivers that provide so many ecosystem services – mitigating floodwaters, renewing groundwater supplies, filtering pollutants, providing habitat for fish and wildlife – and also providing plain recreational fun and enjoyment. And we fight to make Hoosiers aware of the pressing need to hold our state government accountable for the improved regulation of water polluters like: concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) and industrial scale farms, septic systems, electric coal plants, refineries and industrial manufacturing facilities leaching and releasing contaminates into our ground and surface waters.
