There are 27 new stories in this week’s PA Environment Digest -- actually a lot more-- that show leadership from a variety of citizens to cleanup abandoned mines, wildlife groups doing stream restorations, business supporting anti-litter efforts and reporting on their sustainability initiatives, schools at all levels being recognized for their environmental initiatives, energy company support for wildlife initiatives, a synagogue dedicating its solar energy array, a family permanently preserving their land and more.
There are many, many more people just like these working all across Pennsylvania to restore and protect the environment and show others the beauty that surrounds us.
Thank you for your leadership!
