Who We Are
Our Mission
To educate, organize, and advocate in defense of Missouri’s people and their environment.
Missouri Coalition for the Environment (MCE) is Missouri’s independent, citizens’ environmental organization for clean water, clean air, clean energy, and a healthy environment.
We are a trusted, non-partisan, 501(c)(3) state-level environmental advocacy organization, an informed educator, a passionate advocate, and a state-wide partner supporting allied organizations and initiatives around the state. We deliver vital information to thousands of Missourians on issues that affect our water, air, food, health, and the environment.
With the help of our members and allies, we are making the world a better place. We believe our air, water, and land are gifts to sustain all life, and that these resources should be available to serve the public interest today and for all future generations and not be sacrificed for short-term gain. This work requires vigilance, stewardship, advocacy, compassion, and a heck of a sense of humor. We hope you will join us.
