Dear Friend,

No matter who has the majority in Washington, we need to keep pressure on large corporations to protect people and the planet … you can use your power as a consumer and investor as a power for good! 

And WOW does our collective, economic action work!

We're getting corporate America to radically change the way it does business—rapid adoption of clean energy, reinventing the way food is grown, and protecting workers worldwide.

Our corporate responsibility campaigns have made extraordinary progress in 2020! 

  • Big news for the climate! We successfully pushed Amazon, AT&T, and Verizon to make some of the largest corporate purchases of renewable energy in the US.
  • We pushed CVS to save a world of paper! Equal to 27,000 miles—the length of the equator—and they’ve stopped using receipts coated in Bisphenol S (BPS).
  • We pressured JP Morgan Chase, the world’s largest funder of fossil fuels, to stop financing dirty energy, new coal, and Arctic drilling. 

As a Green American, you can be proud that you are a part of this powerful work.

Economic activism is what allows us to achieve these victories.
Members like you make this work possible.

That's why I need you by my side more than ever. I'm asking you to please make a special contribution to our Matching Gift Challenge. Your donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $125,000!

Together, you and I will build on our 2020 victories and we will achieve our biggest impact ever in 2021:

#1 We’re reversing the climate crisis by ending our reliance on fossil fuels, advancing renewables, and drawing carbon back down into the soil.

Over 100,000 people have taken our “Cool It!” action against Walmart to curb HFCs—greenhouse gases up to 9,000 times more potent than CO2—which resulted in Walmart committing to act by 2040. In 2021, we’ll push Walmart to act more quickly on its climate-harming refrigeration.

#2 Together, you and I are accelerating economic justice by protecting workers in the most dangerous supply chains around the world.

In 2021, we’ll keep the pressure on Amazon to address its massive carbon emissions, while protecting workers in its warehouses and factories.

#3 Together, we’re creating system change—supporting frontline workers and communities most affected by the pandemic, racism, and the climate crisis.

We’re working with the largest tech companies—including Apple, Dell, and HP—to remove the most toxic chemicals from supplier factories. In 2021, we’ll launch a safer chemicals commitment program to protect millions of workers.

Green America is tipping entire industries toward sustainability. I'm saying this not out of naïve optimism, but grounded in the hard work we do every day on the front lines of change.

And today—right now—you have the chance to do something HUGE.
When you donate, your gift with be DOUBLED to make twice the impact in 2021

Together, we are a powerful force for good,
