ISSUE TRACKER
Welcome to the VCN Issue Tracker page. VCN Network Partners work on a wide range of issues that we organize into four main program categories: Clean Water, Land Conservation & Wildlife, Land Use & Transportation, and Climate & Energy. We also collaboratively work on ensuring an Equitable & Inclusive Government, which we often categorize separately because it affects all of our conservation programs.
Our programs often work together to form a strong, cohesive environmental movement. If you cannot find a particular issue in the categories below, try using the search function.
Restoring health and water quality to our creeks, rivers, and the Bay by reducing pollution from agriculture, wastewater, and stormwater, and ending plastic waste.
Protecting Virginia’s natural resources to support clean water and air, wildlife populations, viewsheds, food security, culture, history, and improved physical and mental health.
Leveraging smarter land use, expanding alternatives to driving, and electrifying transportation to reduce carbon emissions and lower vehicle miles traveled.
Responsibly developing clean energy infrastructure, ramping up energy efficiency and solar investments, and ensuring an equitable transition to a clean energy economy.
Achieving our conservation efforts through an equitable and inclusive government, with policies and programs that represent and benefit all Virginians
