Vermonters
for a Clean
Environment

Bringing Environmental Justice and Corporate Accountability to Vermont Communities Since 1999

About Us
Vermonters for a Clean Environment is a statewide grassroots organization and non-profit corporation. We believe that Vermont’s economic health depends on its environmental health.

VCE was founded in 1999 by citizens in southwestern Vermont who joined together to deal with an inappropriate industrial development project. VCE’s members now come from all over Vermont.

Testimonials

 We’re pleased to make our annual contribution to the important work VCE continues to provide to VT communities. There’s no one else who does what you do — and sadly the need seems to be increasing despite Vermont’s green reputation. I sleep better knowing you’re working on behalf of all of us who care about a healthy and sustainable place to live.

Many VCE members appreciative Vermonters
         

 Just wanting to thank all of you for the enormous impact you have on protecting Vermont and Vermonters from unwanted, harmful development. All of you are sometimes the only entity standing in the way of powerful corporations which do not take into consideration the values which we hold dear. All of you are appreciated more than you know.
