Change happens when we show up! For 35 years, Environmental Day (E-Day) has united advocates to demand stronger environmental protections for West Virginians. Attending isn’t just about networking or displays—it’s about showing up, being seen, and holding legislators accountable for their decisions about our environment, health, and future.
Join us at the WV State Capitol on Monday, March 17, 2025, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. to stand with fellow advocates and send a clear message: West Virginians demand strong environmental protections for clean air, safe water, and public lands. Registration is now open.
Did you miss our live webinar? You can now watch the recording of Advocacy 101 – Preparing for E-Day, where we covered the fundamentals of effective advocacy, including why it matters, how to set up meetings with legislators, and key topics you may wish to discuss. Plus, get the latest legislative updates from WVEC lobbyist Lucia Valentine on what’s been filed and what to expect in Charleston this session.
What to Expect at E-Day 2025
- Presence Matters: A strong turnout sends a powerful message—West Virginians care about clean air, safe water and public lands.
- Join the Rally: Stand alongside advocates and lawmakers calling for change.
- Exhibit & Connect: Nonprofits, student groups, and advocacy organizations will showcase their work.
- Celebrate Environmental Leadership: This year, we’re reintroducing awards to recognize emerging advocates and legacy environmental champions who have impacted WV’s environmental movement.
- Meet with Legislators: Have direct conversations about issues and policies.
Join the 35th Anniversary Celebration!
The first E-Day occurred on January 22, 1990, when over 450 citizens from across the state gathered at the WV State Capitol to declare the 1990s as the “Decade of the Environment” in WV. The impact was immediate—constituents flooded legislators with their concerns, and thanks to statewide media coverage, E-Day became a cornerstone of WVEC’s mission.
Since the first E-Day, we’ve shown that a visible, vocal movement is the key to change. Let’s ensure legislators know we are watching, caring, and holding them accountable.
The best way to make an impact? Show up.
