Every year, John, I'm humbled to see the Food & Water Watch community rise up and do everything possible to protect people and our environment.
Working together, we’ve been able to take our fights to Congress, to the courts and to the streets. We’ve won the unwinnable fights because of you, but we have a long way to go and no time to waste when it comes to protecting our food, water and climate.
That’s why we’ve set a goal of $100,000 this GivingTuesday, and thanks to a group of generous members, your gift will be MATCHED $3 to $1 making FOUR times the impact — but only if you can give now.
Because of you, we’ve blocked more than a dozen fossil fuel infrastructure projects around the country, and we’ve gotten bans on fracking in New York, Maryland and Washington, as well as a five-year moratorium in Oregon. We organized in Baltimore to enact groundbreaking water affordability legislation and helped keep the water turned on for millions of people across the country during the pandemic. Your support is saving lives today and protecting our future.
2021 will be a crucial year under President-elect Biden and his administration. They will need to make climate a priority on day one, and I know you are ready for the chance to make real, bold federal change to protect our food, water and climate. Together, we will demand a:
Ban on fracking and new fossil fuel extraction on public lands;
National climate emergency declaration under the National Emergencies Act;
Limit on appointments to only those with no ties to Big Oil & Gas;
Reversal of environmental rollbacks for clean water protections and the National Environmental Policy Act; and
Halt to water shutoffs during the pandemic.
I am confident that when we utilize our winning strategy of working directly with people and their communities to organize and demand change, President-elect Biden will listen to the millions of Americans demanding immediate action to protect people and our communities from catastrophic climate change.
We have no time to waste. I hope you can help make this GivingTuesday an amazing success for our environment. It's your generosity that makes it possible for us to continue to fight for our food, water, climate and communities. The gift you make today will power our fights and victories of tomorrow!
Food & Water Watch and its affiliated organization, Food & Water Action, are advocacy groups with a common mission to protect our food, water and climate.
