Converge Left: Region's Social-Justice Groups Assembling to "Level the Playing Field" (Lauren Daley) from the Pittsburgh City Paper
"In Washington and Greene counties, groups fight against long-wall mining, acid drainage and mountaintop removal. In Westmoreland and Allegheny counties, there are those focused on fighting Marcellus Shale natural-gas drilling. But despite the distances, many have the same goals: clean water and environmental sustainability. The Three Rivers Community Foundation wants to bring those and a multitude of other groups together to consolidate their efforts."
