Welcome

LEAF is a Christian fellowship of Tennesseans whose faith leads them to take action for Tennessee’s environment. Concern for God’s Creation is not a matter of being liberal or conservative, a Republican or a Democrat. We believe people of faith can look beyond such distinctions and do the Lord’s work together.

Response to Lt. Gov. Ramsey



Letters have been pouring in since Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey's comments on February 18th concerning mountain top removal in Tennessee. "We need the coal," he said to the Brentwood Chamber of Commerce. He also said that the Tennessee Scenic Vistas Protection Act would end all coal mining in the state. This is not even close to true.
