Connect with Us

I volunteer for Food & Water Watch because I get to have a real impact on important campaigns. I know that every time I come out to help out at a table, to a public event, or activist meeting that what I'm doing is really making a difference.

Campaign to Ban Fracking
Meetings, Rallies, Film Screenings & Other Events!

Food & Water Watch is helping build a nationwide movement to protect our water from fracking. Along with our supporters and allies, we're mobilizing grassroots support for a ban on this dangerous gas-drilling technique.

Across the country, activists are hosting events in their community to educate people about fracking and empower them to take action in support of a ban on fracking. Join us in your community!

Fracking is a gas drilling technique which involves the injection of millions of gallons of hydraulic fracturing fluids – a mixture of chemicals, water and sand – into a well to create pressure that cracks open rock underground, releasing natural gas. This process can deplete and contaminate local water, damage the environment and threaten public health.

The Campaign to Ban Fracking is building momentum across the nation. Join us at an event in your area!
