What is the MEC?
The Mendocino Environmental Center (MEC) has a commitment to social justice and environmental issues through nonviolent grassroots action, education, lawsuits, mutual empowerment, and community organizing.
The MEC has a fifteen-year history of working for environmental and social justice issues. Beginning with the Save Trout Creek Campaign we have given support, organization, office space, computers, insurance, a photocopier, fax, e-mail, message phone and a mailing address for many local and regional activists, campaigns, and issues. The Center works to maintain a close rapport with local
watershed and direct action groups concerned with forest issues.
