Economic Development Responsibility Alliance
From Big Rapids' Gotion plant to the Marshall Megasite, we're Michiganders fighting to protect our farmland and watersheds.
From Big Rapids' Gotion plant to the Marshall Megasite, we're Michiganders fighting to protect our farmland and watersheds.
We are a grassroots alliance of stewards of our land and water, united in our purpose to hold captured regulatory agencies accountable and to stop corrupt deals by taxpayer-funded economic development corporations from destroying our communities, our wild spaces, and our water so that a few may profit.
As Michiganders, we are stewards of the Great Lakes watershed–our nation’s most precious natural resource. our highest priority is preserving this incredible heritage, for generations to come.

Healthy alternatives to heavy industrial development
The vision: food and fiber hubs built within every 50 miles across Michigan, with corresponding farm schools, habitat parks, and recreation retail corridors. A shift in mainstream agricultural practices in Michigan from monoculture to regenerative. Make Michigan home to the largest and most profitable permaculture farms in the world.

To propose to build a 1,900 acre EV megasite along the banks of the Kalamazoo River, or to doze a wetlands a few football fields away from the Muskegon River to build an EV battery plant that sucks up over 715,000 gallons of water per day, and to tell us that it’s because it’s GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT is just gaslighting.
This isn’t “Green”. This is an environmental catastrophe.
