Dear NRDC Supporter,

The fragile Arctic is in grave danger.

The new Trump administration has promised an unprecedented surge in oil drilling, mining, and other development in these pristine wildlands.

We need your support now to protect America's largest intact landscape and the wildlife that call it home.

Your gift will be triple matched, up to $400,000, to power NRDC's emergency legal defense and massive public campaign to protect the Arctic and our environment on all fronts.

The stakes have never been higher.

Pristine Arctic wildlands — home to polar bears, caribou, and millions of migratory birds — face a perfect storm from aggressive industrial expansion, weakening protections, accelerating climate impacts, and relentless pressure to "drill everything."

Your 3x-MATCHED gift will help defend critical Arctic ecosystems and stop dangerous development projects in:

• Cook Inlet: We sued to stop oil leasing and protect endangered beluga whales. Now, Cook Inlet is again at risk of oil leasing from the Trump administration. Make a triple-matched gift to defend endangered Arctic wildlife >>
• Arctic wildlands: With the support of the new administration, ConocoPhillips will continue to move forward with the Willow project, its massive drilling operation, threatening decades of climate destruction. Triple your impact to stop Big Oil's assault on Arctic wilderness >>
• Western Arctic Reserve: Oil giants aim to block historic new protections for 10 million acres of crucial wildlife habitat right next door to the Willow oil drilling project. Donate now and your gift will be MATCHED $2-for-$1 to protect unscarred Arctic wildlands >>

We know the second Trump administration will act swiftly on day one. We must move quickly now to strengthen our defense of the Arctic and the wild places we all cherish.

Your support today helps protect the Arctic, its wildlife, and the Indigenous communities who depend on these ecosystems — and ensures our children and grandchildren can inherit a world still graced by untouched Arctic wonders.

Make your tax-deductible donation now and a group of anonymous donors will TRIPLE MATCH your gift to defend the Arctic and our environment.

Thank you for joining us at this critical moment.

Sincerely,

Bobby McEnaney
Director of Land Conservation, NRDC
