About WEAL
Through local action, public programs, newsletters, and this web site WEAL
provides up-to-date information on environmental issues to the general public,
teachers, county, city, and village officials and state legislators.
WEAL was formed in 1978 by citizens alarmed by development threatening Waukesha
County's natural resources. Since then, many WEAL members have become
active in local and county government, greatly influencing the environmental
well-being of Waukesha County.
There is much to be done. Pressures from development continue to increase,
straining resources, diminishing wildlife habitat, and spoiling Waukesha's rural
environment and quality of life. Citizens should be concerned because
adequate safeguards are not yet established in many areas.
