Will you help us cut methane, save polar bears and fight climate change? EDF

As you learned if you took our methane quiz this weekend, EDF has been researching methane for over a decade. And with the help of members like you, we've used that knowledge to cut methane emissions — a critical piece of the fight against climate change and the best way we know to save polar bears.

# We recently announced the Dairy Methane Action Alliance to help reduce and account for the methane emissions in dairy supply chains.
# We successfully organized over 10,000 advocates to push for the most protective methane pollution limit on the books.
# And soon, we’re launching MethaneSAT, which will be able to track methane emissions around the world with unprecedented precision to pinpoint the source of methane leaks.

This work will help us save Arctic summer sea ice and ensure polar bears can not only survive, but thrive for generations to come.

But efforts like this don’t happen without the consistent support of people like you.

Will you support bold climate action to help save the polar bears by starting a monthly gift of $15 or more today? [link removed]

Your donation will be matched $1 for $1, thanks to the Robert W. Wilson Charitable Trust, doubling your impact for your entire first year.

And, as a small gesture of our appreciation, we’ll send you your very own polar bear adoption kit to help you remember the incredible work you’re supporting!

We are so grateful for your support, which makes everything we do possible,

Did you know, John, that the best way to save Arctic summer sea ice is by tackling methane?

That’s because methane is responsible for at least 25% of today’s global warming and has 80 times more warming power, pound-for-pound, than carbon dioxide in its first 20 years in the atmosphere.

And Arctic summer sea ice is incredibly important. Adult polar bears can survive for days at sea, but freshly born cubs don’t have the strength of their mothers and may drown as the stretches between sea ice get farther and farther apart.

But the more we know about this issue, the better we’re able to tackle it.Take a few minutes today to quiz yourself and learn more about methane pollution. [link removed]

As we learn about methane, we can cut emissions, save the Arctic sea ice and create a brighter future for polar bears. EDF has been working for over a decade to learn more about this potent greenhouse gas and no one knows more about methane than we do.

What percentage of Arctic summer sea ice has vanished? Where do methane emissions come from? How much methane are we able to cut with current technology? These seem like simple questions, but the answers may surprise you!

P.S. Since you made it to the end of the email, here’s a freebie — MethaneSAT, a project spearheaded by EDF, will soon be launched into orbit. Dubbed a “security camera for the planet” by The New Yorker, it will pinpoint methane leaks with unprecedented precision and will be a gamechanger in our fight against methane pollution.
