This is your chance to help the environmental movement on Giving Tuesday.? ? ? ? ? Friend ? last week, we got the incredible news that a major donor put up a $100,000 challenge grant to run pro-environment campaigns into the new year.

The catch is that it only unlocks if 2,000 LCV members contribute before midnight on Giving Tuesday ? that's tonight, just a few hours away.

We're still 487 donations short. That's SO CLOSE ? I'm hoping you'll help put us over the top.

Donate to the League of Conservation Voters before midnight tonight to help our pro-environment campaigns. Gifts of any amount count, even if they're just $5 ? [link removed]

This goal is a big one, and we're pulling out every stop to get there. After months of must-win political fights with the Trump administration, the truth is our resources are stretched. In his final days in office, the administration is making some incredibly dangerous moves on the environment ? and there's a real risk they succeed.

Here's just a bit of what we're up against right now ? and why hitting this goal matters SO, so much: Because the Trump administration has issued an official "call for nominations" to oil companies ? asking them to select areas in the Arctic they would like to lease for drilling. If Trump fast-tracks these leases, it may be too late to stop the process. We still have a shot at blocking this, but it needs to happen now. You can help. Make a donation to LCV today ? [link removed] Because Trump just made Alaska's Tongass National Forest up for grabs for logging and other forms of development. This forest is considered the lungs of North America. The Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian people depend on the forest as part of their home and their heritage ? and Trump stripped protections that had been in place for nearly two decades. We have to turn this around, but the only way that happens is if the environmental movement mobilizes in a major way. We need YOUR help ? [link removed] Because Trump has removed the scientist responsible for the National Climate Assessment, replacing him with a climate change denier. More firings are expected in the final weeks of Trump's presidency ? we need to be ready to fight each and every one of them ? and be ready to push Biden to restore scientific integrity to federal agencies. Please ? donate today. Even $5 can make a huge difference ? [link removed] Because the environmental movement needs to be ready on day 1 of the Biden administration. Biden won with a huge mandate to tackle climate change. But the only way we translate that into serious progress is by aggressive campaigning. We need to block Trump now, and set up Biden to move quickly on climate as soon as he's inaugurated. Friend ? I want you to know just how much your support matters. Please, donate today ? [link removed] If everyone reading this email chipped in today ? even just $5 helps ?we would blow through our goal, unlocking the Giving Tuesday Challenge and securing the resources we need for all the environmental campaigns we're fighting into 2021.

Please, contribute to the League of Conservation Voters before tonight's Giving Tuesday deadline ? [link removed]

Thank you, thank you, thank you, friend ? for your support today, and everything you do for the environment.
