With the start of the new administration, we face immediate threats to our planet's future. Donald Trump is already planning attacks on critical environmental protections, and we're ready to fight back. From the Arctic Refuge to endangered species, the battles ahead will be fierce—but we've already proven that when we stand together, we win.
Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
The Arctic Refuge is one of the last intact ecosystems on the planet. It's home to mother polar bears nursing cubs in their dens. It's home to massive caribou herds thundering across the tundra. Last time, Trump pushed for oil and gas leases in its most vulnerable areas. But we fought back. With our partners, we sent hundreds of thousands of messages to CEOs, putting immense pressure on corporations—and we won. Big Oil was kept out. Trump will likely try again, but we're ready to defend the Refuge.
The breathtaking beauty of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase Escalante is a testament to the power and wonder of our public lands. These sacred landscapes, rich with ancient petroglyphs and history, are more than just recreational spots—they are integral to Native American tribes and our shared heritage. However, last time, Trump unlawfully attempted to roll back protections and open these sacred places to coal and uranium mining. He may try to do so again. We've fought for these lands in court and Capitol Hill before, and we'll do it again with your support. Together, we'll stand against efforts to sell out our public lands to corporate interests. These lands belong to all of us—not to Big Coal.
From the majestic bald eagle to the elusive red wolf, countless species rely on the Endangered Species Act (ESA) to survive. But Trump's allies in Congress are targeting these landmark protections so that logging, mining, and oil and gas can take over endangered species habitats. We've fought and won before, from protecting the Florida Key Deer to upholding grizzly bear protections just this month. The Endangered Species Act is one of America's most beloved laws, and millions are ready to defend it. We'll mobilize to protect it and ensure wildlife thrives for generations. These passionate voices will call their representatives again and again, demanding they do the right thing for vulnerable animals. We won't stop until these vital protections stay strong.
We will fight for our planet—the Arctic, our national monuments, the Endangered Species Act, and more—using every tool at our disposal, starting with:
Taking corporate giants to court
Organizing grassroots power in all 50 states
Filing lawsuits to protect bedrock environmental protections
Mobilizing communities to pressure Congress
Leveraging public pressure and media campaigns Building strong coalitions to push for change
The stakes couldn't be higher. The next four years will be crucial for the planet's future, and we're ready to stand firm, just as we've done before. The first 100 days of this administration will shape the future of our environment, from the policies that protect our lands and wildlife to the bold steps needed for a sustainable future. Every decision and every appointment will have a lasting impact. Friend, this is our moment. Only with your help can we rise to this challenge and win these critical battles.
