[ [link removed] ]Fundraising Deadline: 30 September
John -
The stakes for our planet have never been higher... Wildfires,
record-breaking heat, massive flooding — this is the reality we will be
facing if we do not take bold climate action to stop the fossil fuel
industry now.
That's why we're launching our next, major climate campaign to stop their
disastrous exploitation of our planet and communities. But we are facing
an important fundraising deadline that will determine how big we can go
for our next campaign...
September 30 marks the end of the fiscal year here at 350.org. It is the
day when we will lock in our budgets and determine how much we are able to
spend on the next fiscal year's campaigns starting on October 1.
So I have to ask before it's too late:

close the budgets on September 30? Your donation will power the biggest
and boldest climate campaigns we have ever run.

Climate activists across Latin America are gearing up to launch a major
solar energy campaign in the Brazilian Amazon to empower remote
communities to take renewable energy generation into their own hands.
Their goal is to create renewable energy in the world's largest tropical
forest and give many people access to safe energy, while protecting this
unique and precious ecosystem from destruction.
But they are up against the entire force of the fossil fuel industry,
which is expanding quickly throughout the continent:
The Brazilian government and fossil fuel companies are already extracting
fossil gas without consulting the local communities and they are planning
to start offshore oil extraction near the mouth of the Amazon River, one
of the three largest rivers in the world.^1
350.org has been supporting local groups standing up to the polluters
while fighting together with the Latin America movement to stop them from
going even further. But the pressure from big corporations and government
members is mounting...

America with a donation today?

This campaign is about more than tackling climate change — it's also about
ensuring that local communities have a say in shaping their future and
reaping the benefits of fair and renewable energy.
Thank you for chipping in whatever you can today. Your support —
especially before this critical deadline — makes a material difference in
the lives of climate activists standing up to the fossil fuel industry.
Onwards,
Olivia Langhoff
