Join the Havasupai, Hopi, Navajo, and Hualapai leaders to protect the Grand Canyon’s sacred waters from uranium mining on public lands that surround the national park.
Good news! We now have a shot at permanently banning new uranium mines on public lands surrounding Grand Canyon National Park. Three things you should know.
County officials recently wrote in an op-ed that "the uranium mining industry has gone out of its way to protect the environment." But the uranium industry's track record tells a different story.
Over 1 million gallons of toxic mine waste spilled into the Animas River, turning it an eerie orange. This should make us think twice about mining uranium near the Grand Canyon.
For more than a century, protecting the Grand Canyon, in its entirety, has been an uphill battle. From tourist developments to mining interests, the Grand Canyon remains under siege.
