Dear NRDC Supporter,

We are so heartened by the thousands of NRDC members and
supporters who stepped up and made donations last year. We depend
on that support to keep up our fight, in and out of court, to
protect wildlife, wild places and our health, and to advocate for
effective solutions that continue to drive clean energy progress
and address the climate crisis.

Let's be honest. We face very challenging times ahead.
Donald Trump takes office as our next President on January 20,
and we know his administration is planning some of the broadest
attacks on environmental protections we've ever seen.

As we prepare for this new landscape, I want to give you a
sense of what we here at NRDC are planning for, and how — with
your support — we plan to fight back.

* We expect the president and his supporters in Congress to
try to repeal or severely weaken the Inflation Reduction Act
(IRA), the historic climate law that made the single largest
investment to fight climate change in American history and which
has launched a clean energy manufacturing renaissance across the
country.
* We expect that they will push to accelerate oil and gas
drilling along our coasts and on public lands, especially across
Alaska's wild Arctic — including the Arctic National Wildlife
Refuge, one of the most iconic wilderness areas in the world.
* They will try to undermine important environment, energy, and
public health protections by defunding the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), the Department of Interior, and key
clean energy and energy efficiency offices at the Department of
Energy, just to name a few.
* They will try to repeal critical environmental and public
health safeguards that remove toxic lead and PFAS "forever
chemicals" from drinking water, reduce air pollutants and
greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, and expand electric
vehicles and reduce pollution from cars and trucks.
* They have plans to weaken the Endangered Species Act,
threatening the survival of grizzly bears, gray wolves, beluga
whales, and scores of other at-risk wildlife species.
* They will seek to walk back the U.S.'s critical role as an
international climate leader by withdrawing (yet again) from the
Paris Climate Agreement.
* They plan to raise from the dead the dangerous Keystone XL
pipeline that would bring climate-busting tar sands oil from
Canada into the U.S.
* They will try to gut safeguards that protect essential
pollinators like bees and monarch butterflies, and countless
other wildlife, from decimation by toxic pesticides.

While these threats are dire, the good news is that NRDC is
ready to fight back against these anti-environmental attacks, and
to advocate for innovative solutions to our most pressing
environmental problems. Here's how:

* NRDC's powerhouse team of lawyers stand ready to take the
Trump administration to court, when necessary, to stop illegal
rollbacks, defend strong, durable environmental laws from attack,
and make sure our essential pollution safeguards are enforced.
* Our D.C. lobbying team will work on Capitol Hill to defend key
environmental programs from fossil fuel allies in Congress. We'll
work with lawmakers to protect the historic climate provisions in
the IRA and ensure that funding for clean energy and economic
growth continues to flow to the communities they represent. We'll
also fight to prevent rollbacks of bedrock laws like the
Endangered Species Act and efforts to gut the National
Environmental Policy Act.
* We will take the fight directly to polluters by building out a
new campaign on oil and gas companies, which, for too long, have
enjoyed social license to pollute. NRDC will hold the fossil fuel
companies accountable for violating environmental laws. We will
work to unchain our economy from dirty energy and phase out
fossil fuels in a way that is swift, responsible, and affordable.
* NRDC's regional teams will ramp up their work in state capitols
and in city halls to defend our hard-fought gains at the state
and local levels. And our work internationally will become even
more important to safeguard climate, biodiversity, and pollution
protections.
* Finally, our science team will be a trusted source of sound
scientific information, telling the truth about what's happening
to the environment. We'll help make sure the public grasps the
stakes every time the Trump administration undermines the
environment and public health.

As we embark on this work over the coming year, we
recognize that we simply can't do it without you. We depend on
your financial support, yes, but we also need your time and
energy — writing letters and making phone calls to political
leaders, hitting the streets and attending community meetings and
rallies, and even just talking to your friends and neighbors to
grow this powerful movement one voice at a time.

This is a grassroots fight — and it starts with you. Thank
you for standing by our side.

Happy New Year,

Manish Bapna

President, NRDC
