This is how we change the trajectory for our climate and communities.
TRIPLE YOUR IMPACT
350's first-ever Giving Day ends in just a few hours, John.
And those hours will be the difference between hitting the goal we set for our first-ever Giving Day — or falling short.
Before I explain what's at stake, if you are ready to make a donation for the future of our climate, can you chip in $3.50 now? All contributions before midnight will be TRIPLE MATCHED.
350.org launched this Giving Day one year after the hottest month ever recorded as a promise: a promise to do everything we can to replace fossil fuels with clean and just renewable energy.
Because if we stay the course we're on — the course the fossil fuel industry is desperately fighting for — temperatures will just get more and more extreme, and our future will only hold more climate destruction. The cost of doing nothing is a cost we cannot afford to pay.
So we have a plan. In the next year, we are setting out to build large-scale, community-centered renewable energy campaigns across the globe, starting with REPower Afrika.
Your $3:$1 matched gift today will help our REPower Afrika campaign to:
- Increase energy access: Provide reliable and sustainable electricity to underserved and rural communities in Africa.
- Mitigate climate change: Reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
- Empower economically: Train and employ local communities, especially women, in the solar energy sector, promoting economic development and gender equality.
When we all come together to make REPower Afrika a success, we can show governments and leaders around the world the importance of financing renewable energy, while providing a blueprint for other local and regional communities on how to make the switch to an energy-secure future.
So before 350's Giving Day ends, can you make a donation to TRIPLE your impact for our climate campaigns, and make a real difference for our planet and communities?
We all share the same climate. So let's do everything we can to protect it — together.
In solidarity,
