Lindsey Coffey’s Advocacy: Water Crisis, Restoration and Pollution
In Coffey’s biography for Miss Earth USA 2020, she details some of the driving causes that are near and dear to her heart. She told Miss Earth, “We are facing many environmental issues today; however, the water crisis poses the most immediate risk as it affects humanity and regional stability.”
Along with a passion for getting clean water to humanity and supporting the habitat around it, she also promotes and educates on social media about various environmental concerns. Eco-tourism, restoration of farming, community work and just plain old education so that the public knows the dangers of not taking action for our climate.
