Pure Earth

Pure Earth is a global nonprofit focused on identifying, preventing, and remediating toxic pollution—primarily lead and mercury—in low- and middle-income countries. Their work includes identification of toxic sites, public health education, behavior change strategies, and decontamination projects, with a particular focus on protecting children and pregnant women from exposure to lead and mercury[1][2]. Pure Earth collaborates with governments, communities, and industry partners, combining advocacy, technical assistance, and on-the-ground interventions. Their efforts have led to increased global awareness of the scale of lead poisoning and have contributed to policy changes and cleanup projects in dozens of countries[1][2][8].
