Dear NRDC Action Fund Activist,

We are running out of time. Almost every day brings us a new reminder that the climate crisis is here, and none of us are safe from its impact. Election Day 2020 will be one of our last chances to change course, and avert climate catastrophe. Yet according to a disturbing new poll, climate change does not rank among the top five most important issues right now.

We must do everything to make sure that climate is a top-priority issue on the campaign trail — and ultimately, end Donald Trump's destructive presidency.

That means turning out as many voters as possible who care about fighting climate change. That's what our Environmental Victory Drive is all about.

This fight is too important to sit out. Please, get off the sidelines by donating to our Environmental Victory Drive. Thanks to a generous donor, all gifts made before Super Tuesday on March 3 will be MATCHED, $1-for-$1, up to $100,000 — doubling your impact on these vitally important elections.

November may seem like a long time away, but what we can accomplish on Election Day depends on what we do right now — beginning with the Democratic primaries happening in states across the country.

When you support the Environmental Victory Drive, your donation to the NRDC Action Fund will help us deploy proven strategies to mobilize voters and elect environmental champions up and down the ballot in November. Your matched gift will help us:

• Build a bigger, better text-out-the-vote campaign to reach voters in the states and districts where it matters most. In 2018, Action Fund supporters like you contacted more than 360,000 voters — and we're going even further in 2020. Donate now >>
• Deploy organizers in key districts across the country to mobilize grassroots supporters who will lead the charge to and win real change, one conversation at a time. Match my gift >>
• Keep climate at the forefront of the national conversation in the media and run targeted ad campaigns that activate pro-climate voters and provide a desperately needed counter to Trump and his allies' onslaught of fake news and misinformation. Help us win for our planet in 2020 >>

And that just scratches the surface. In addition to helping us elect climate champions this year, your contribution will help us lobby lawmakers in Congress, state houses, and city councils across the country for strong climate, clean energy, and pro-environment policies in 2020 and beyond.

In key races all across the country, our ability to get pro-environment voters to the polls could be the difference between electing leaders who will fight for our climate or those who will keep doing the bidding of the fossil fuel industry — so we can't leave anything up to chance.

Please, chip into the Environmental Victory Drive today and help us hit our $100,000 match goal. Remember: All gifts made before Super Tuesday on March 3 will be doubled to help us build the best 2020 campaign possible.

If we want a president who will take action to solve the existential threat we face ... a Congress that will pass laws to permanently break Big Oil's stranglehold on power in Washington ... and an engaged citizenry that will hold our government accountable through grassroots organizing ... then we must build up our war chest now.

Thanks for your support at this crucial time. I'll be in touch soon with more ways for you to get involved in this all-important fight for our future.

Sincerely,

Kevin S. Curtis
Executive Director, NRDC Action Fund
