Green Amendments For The Generations is hosting a special online preview of the PBS Program Here's The Story: The Green Amendment on April 22 with special events from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.

While Pennsylvania has had a voter-adopted Environmental Rights Amendment since 1971, 48 other states and the federal government do not.

The Green Amendments For The Generations is a movement started by the Delaware RiverKeeper Network to promote the adoption of similar amendments in all the states and to the federal constitution.

The new PBS program Here's The Story: The Green Amendment describes how the movement started and where it's going.
