Big
polluters know they have just a few weeks to get what they want from the
departing Trump administration. These next few weeks could be incredibly
destructive for our planet and for vulnerable communities.

Already the Trump administration has begun the leasing process for
climate-wrecking oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife
Refuge — a move that could open huge swaths of the Refuge to destruction
before Biden takes office.

They're also pushing to force construction of the Keystone XL tar sands
pipeline, gutting the legal protections that frontline communities rely on
to fight back against polluting projects, and much more.

And so even as we map out plans to hold the Biden administration to its
promises, our legal team needs your support right now to do their work.

[ [link removed] ]We have a chance to unlock a critical $200,000 boost to these efforts —
but we need your help. Will you be one of the 5,000 NRDC supporters to
pitch in before Giving Tuesday ends? Just $5 or more
helps.

Thanks,

Mitch Bernard
Executive Director & Chief Counsel, NRDC

Dear NRDC Supporter,

A climate catastrophe is occurring right before our eyes.

Supercharged wildfires. Record-breaking heatwaves. Stronger hurricanes.
Climate change is causing immense suffering in every corner of our country
— and the worst is yet to come if we don't act immediately.

As the Biden administration begins to take shape, we must seize this
critical moment to reverse the damage inflicted by the Trump
administration and build a clean energy future that prioritizes the health
and safety of ALL people.

You can help. An anonymous donor has offered to donate a whopping $200,000
to help power our hard work ahead of us. But there's a catch: 5,000 people
like you must pitch in with a gift of any amount by midnight on Giving
Tuesday. [ [link removed] ]Will you donate now to help unlock $200,000 for bold climate
action? Just $5 or more will get us closer to our
goal.

For the
last four years, we were laser-focused on blocking the Trump
administration's worst attacks. But over the next four we will refocus our
energy on building a healthier, just future for everyone, especially for
the Black, Indigenous, and communities of color who have been
disproportionately affected by climate change.

Together, we must:

* Push the Biden administration to turn the promise of its
groundbreaking climate plan into reality, turbocharge our transition
to a thriving clean energy economy, and bring the United States back
into the Paris climate agreement;
* Work to rebuild the EPA, Interior Department, and other key federal
agencies that were decimated by four years of chaos and cuts — and
call for President Biden to make his cabinet a climate cabinet, across
the board;
* Continue using the courts to hold corporate polluters and elected
officials accountable to our essential public health and environmental
laws;
* Block any last-minute assaults from Trump before he leaves office — as
he is already poised to ram through permits for drilling in the Arctic
Refuge and a slew of anti-environmental rollbacks while he still can.

[ [link removed] ]Please, make a gift before midnight on Tuesday and help unlock $200,000
to help build a brighter future in the weeks and months ahead.
As little as $5 can help us get
there.

Undoing Trump's damage will not be easy. Corporate polluters will redouble
their efforts to run roughshod over our air, water, and climate. But
together, we can achieve incredible things — and the momentum is on our
side.

[ [link removed] ]When you give by midnight on Tuesday, your donation will immediately
strengthen the next phase of our work together and ensure that protecting
people's health, our communities, the environment, and our children's
future is a top priority for the Biden administration.

This is the chance we've been waiting for. We don't have a moment to
waste. [ [link removed] ]Will you join us?

Sincerely,

Donations will be used for bold climate action and for other campaigns
that allow NRDC to protect the environment in the most effective way
possible.
