Dear John,

Friends of the Earth members like you are fueling the fight for a healthy,
thriving, and just world. Today, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your
contribution to saving our one and only Earth and all the life it supports. See your impact.

Your donations empower us to hire campaigners, conduct groundbreaking research,
and lobby for real, positive change in communities across the country. And your
advocacy helps pressure companies and politicians to save bees from toxic
pesticides, stop dangerous pipelines, and put the planet before profits.

pipelines like the Atlantic Coast Pipeline!

[[link removed]]In 2014, Duke Energy and Dominion Energy announced their plan to build a
600-mile fracked gas pipeline from West Virginia to South Carolina. The pipeline
threatened to cross the Appalachian Trail, require 38 miles of mountaintop
removal, and damage farmland, forest, wildlife and habitats. It would have
generated 20 coal plants’ worth of climate pollution every year. And it would
have disproportionately harmed low-wealth, African American and Indigenous
communities along the pipeline route.

Alarmed by the news, Friends of the Earth immediately began working with allies
and local communities to stop this pipeline in its tracks.

It was a long fight, but we won. This summer, we stopped the Atlantic Coast Pipeline for good, showing that when
we fight the fossil fuel industry together, we win.

Find out how your support and advocacy is stopping fracked gas pipelines and
protecting the places, wildlife, and communities we love!

communities, alongside people like you. More than 156,000 Friends of the Earth activists took action to stop this
pipeline. You sent thousands of emails and made hundreds of phone calls to key
decision-makers in Virginia and North Carolina. You attended shareholder
meetings to make sure our voices were heard. Your donations helped us organize a
powerful protest at the Supreme Court to help stop this pipeline from crossing
the Appalachian Trail.

John, this victory is bittersweet. Pipeline companies
continue to push through dangerous and unnecessary projects with similar or
worse impacts across the country. Communities in these same three states are
still fighting the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) and its MVP Southgate
Extension into North Carolina. Fights continue against the Line 3, Jordan Cove,
Keystone XL, and Trans Mountain fossil fuel projects.

The grassroots victory over the Atlantic Coast Pipeline proves that your
donations fuel real wins for people and the planet. The ACP’s defeat is a major
setback for the destructive fossil fuel industry. At Friends of the Earth, we
are building a movement for real climate leadership that includes saving
endangered species, protecting our wild places, stopping toxic infrastructure
like ACP, and building a just, people-centered world for everyone.

None of us can do this work alone -- and thanks to you, we don’t have to.

Thank you for being there with us, persisting after every setback and
celebrating every victory. I am so proud to work with you every day to make the
world a better place.

industry.
