Dear Green American,
This time of year, it feels like everything is coaxing us to buy, buy, buy. Email inboxes overflowing with 40% off, commercials interrupting your favorite show, non-stop ads on social mediaā¦No matter how the message is wrapped, the underlying goal of these ads is to make corporations more, more, more.
Corporations that donāt share your values donāt deserve your money.
The cruelest part is that at the heart of holiday consumerism is LOVE. It is a beautiful act to give and receive. Weāre not discouraging you from gift-giving during the longest nights of the year.
Instead, we hope that you consider making your holiday extra special by purchasing gifts from small, green businesses that care for workers and the planet as much as you do. Gifting green is economic activism. And wow is it powerful!
Your holiday activism toolkit below includes:
Make a gift, receive a gift
Shop gift ideas from green businesses
Celebrate our collective 2025 victories for people and planet
Demand Big Tech power AI with clean energy
Alisa Gravitz
President & CEO

š From Comcast to Climate Gardens: A Year of Wins
2025 is almost over. It was a year of heartbreaking challenges and setbacks in Washington. But thanks to the support of our members and the work of our talented staff, it was also a year of great progress in creating a green economy. Before we enter the New Year, weād like to reflect on all the amazing things weāGreen America and supporters like youāwere able to accomplish this year:
We saved over 1 million acres of beautiful California wilderness and protected communities by defeating two massive wood pellet biomass plants.
We got Comcast to more than DOUBLE its clean energy.
We DOUBLED our regenerative agriculture footprint to 500,000 verified acres! Thatās almost half as large as Rhode Island.
35,000 gardens are now registered as Climate Victory Gardensāmeaning people like you are turning their backyards into productive gardens that capture carbon for the climate.
Over 250,000 people learned how to move their money to responsible banks and insurance companies using Green Americaās resources. Thatās thousands of people putting their money into institutions that value impact over profit.
Green Americans sent over 1,223,400 messages to corporate executives and legislators to take action to build a greener economy.
Toxic chemicals removed in 800 electronics facilities, 30+ countries, working with Apple, HP, and Dell.
All those achievements were possible thanks to people like you participating in our campaigns against bad corporate actors and taking action in your daily lives. And we want to keep the momentum going into 2026! Your donation today will be doubled, so that we can have twice the impact in the new year. š

ā”The AI Boom Is HereāLetās Make It 100% Clean
In the New Year, weāre taking on Artificial Intelligence and the Big Tech companies that are putting their profits over communities and the climate in the race to AI. AI has been making waves, and not all for the right reasons. Data centers that power AI are notorious energy hogs, and tech companies are increasingly using fossil fuels to power them. And relying on fossil fuels is driving up our energy bills.
But the good news is we donāt need to use dirty fossil fuels when the AI boom could propel us into the renewable energy future. We are pressuring Google, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft to commit to 100% renewable energy to power AI and work to benefit local communities. Join us in shaping the tech futureādemand tech companies pledge to use 100% renewable energy!
