Dear NRDC Activist,

I've been litigating in court to protect our environment for 40 years.

And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that the fights that matter most take time to win.

That's especially true today. From a Supreme Court that has already gutted the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act to polluters on the verge of tearing open Arctic wilderness to new oil drilling... we're facing unprecedented challenges that will require a sustained response in and out of court.

And whether we win or lose, the outcomes will be felt for generations.

That's why today we're announcing a new goal of signing up 300 new monthly donors by this Monday, August 28.

Will you become a monthly donor to support our most vital efforts on behalf of our environment? We need just 12 people to respond from your state in order to hit our 300 monthly donor goal by midnight on Monday, August 28.

For more than 50 years, NRDC has fought to protect endangered wildlife species and vulnerable Arctic wilderness from renegade presidents and corporate polluters alike. And thanks to regular, recurring support from individual donors like you, we stood firm and prevailed over seemingly impossible odds.

But as we stare down the double-barreled threat of a mass extinction and runaway climate catastrophe... we cannot afford to lose these next battles.

As you read this, NRDC's team of lawyers and scientists are fighting on multiple fronts to protect wetlands that act as critical carbon sinks... block destructive oil drilling in Arctic wilderness ... and save imperiled wildlife like the gray wolf from new attacks.

And once again, our ability to prevail will rest upon the sustained support we receive from people like you.

We need just 12 monthly donors from your state to meet our goal.

Donate monthly by MIDNIGHT on Monday and sustain our work to protect endangered species, vital ecosystems, and our bedrock environmental laws from mounting attacks by polluters and their allies.

Monthly gifts make an outsized impact because they allow us to plan ahead, commit to long-term efforts, and spend more time fighting for our planet and less time fundraising.

From filing lawsuits to pressuring polluters and waging advocacy campaigns at every level of government, your monthly support ensures we can act quickly and decisively.

All we need from your state is just 12 people to respond. Will you be one of them??

Start a monthly donation today and join a group that's making the biggest difference for planet Earth.

Sincerely,

Mitch Bernard
Chief Counsel, NRDC
