ATWA is an acronym for Air, Trees, Water, Animals and All The Way Alive. It was first termed by Charles Manson in the early 1970's. ATWA is not an organization; the name represents the life support system of the Earth. Charles Manson and his associates, most notably Lynette Fromme and Sandra Good, use the term to name the force of life and the opposition to that which destroys the ecological balance of the Earth.

ATWA is associated with the so-called Manson Family. Also associated are the music group Family Jams and Order of Rainbow.
