Environmental Whistleblowers & Whistleblower Protection. When a governmental agency, business, or other organization is hiding environmental misbehavior or negligence, often we depend on whistleblowers to learn the truth and force a change in behavior. These truth-tellers often pay a price, and protecting them is the way we'll get the truth out more often. See Gloria Flora and Richard Renner.
