Since 1974, we’ve focused our resources where we can make the biggest impact—in Minnesota’s corridors of power and boardrooms of commerce, where environmental issues are often overlooked or ignored.

That’s why we work with our legislature to enact and strengthen environmental laws, the courts of Minnesota and surrounding states to uphold those laws, and our business and civic leaders to find common ground between economic development and environmental preservation.

Only MCEA uses this unique approach to identify and take on our state’s most pressing environmental challenges.

The issues are complex. Change can take years. But the rewards—ensuring a clean, beautiful, and healthy Minnesota and upper Midwest for generations to come—are valuable beyond measure.

Red River flooding periodically threatens western Minnesota and eastern North Dakota towns. But by letting rivers meander again and restoring wetlands, MCEA and other groups are slowing the rampaging Red River while also creating new and better habitat for fish, birds and other wildlife.
