environmental movements
Nature advocacy groups
Environmental movements are organized efforts by groups and individuals to protect the natural world and address ecological problems such as pollution, habitat destruction, and climate change.
These movements range from grassroots activism to international organizations, employing tactics from peaceful protest to legal advocacy to direct action.
The environmental movement gained momentum after the first Earth Day in 1970.
The term often appears in the plural to acknowledge the diversity of causes and approaches within broader environmentalism.
