Friend, our records show that you haven't donated yet to our Year-End Drive.

Don't miss out: Donate before midnight and get your gift matched, up to $100,000 nationwide.

Reaching our goal is critical to ensuring we have the resources we need for campaigns like these:

* Defending the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge: It's one of America's last truly pristine wild places -- but the Trump administration is rushing to auction off pieces of the refuge for oil and gas drilling. We're working to stop the destruction before it can begin.
* Saving the bees: Bee populations are collapsing. We need to step up if we're going to save them -- and we're getting ready to go all-in for these essential pollinators in 2021.
* Stopping plastic pollution: We need to put wildlife over waste by getting rid of the worst single-use plastics.

We run a lean operation -- and we're proud of it. That means that we depend on donations from supporters like you, Friend. Make your matched contribution now.

Your money is the lifeblood of our campaign work -- and even in a year as challenging as 2020, we won some big victories together: This summer, we helped notch one of the greatest conservation victories in a generation with the passage of the Great American Outdoors Act.

And that's not all. Environment Colorado and our national network made progress in tackling our plastic waste crisis -- winning a major ban on single-use polystyrene foam containers and plastic bags in New Jersey. We also saw the ban on polystyrene cups and containers that we won in Maryland last year go into effect.

Friend, 2021 will be a critical year for our environment, and our success depends on all of us doing our part -- don't miss this opportunity to double your impact by donating before our match ends at midnight.

The past year has shown us the importance of having wild outdoor spaces open to the public and protected for future generations -- and we've done all that we can to protect and expand them. It was thanks to supporters like you that we were able to help pass the Great American Outdoors Act, the biggest conservation win in a generation.

Together, we can make our planet a greener, healthier place in 2021. Here are just some of our critical campaigns that your gift will go on to support:

* Defending the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge: It's one of America's last truly pristine wild places, home to denning polar bear families and the vast migration of the Porcupine caribou herd -- but in August, the Trump administration announced it would lease the refuge for oil and gas drilling. We're working to stop the destruction before it can begin. Double your impact by donating today >>

* Saving the bees: Neonics are killing bees -- and the problem is getting worse. We're organizing support for banning the sale of bee-killing neonics to consumers at the state and local levels, and urging Gov. Polis and the federal government to expand bees' habitat through the planting of bee-friendly plants on public lands. Donate today to stand with our pollinators >>

* Stopping plastic pollution: Over the years, our throwaway society has filled our oceans and waterways with hundreds of millions of tons of single-use plastic trash, injuring and killing untold wildlife. We're organizing to convince grocers to stop their excessive use of single-use plastic packaging, starting with Whole Foods. Make your matched donation today >>

We have high hopes for 2021.

But the plastic pollution crisis continues to contaminate waterways and threaten wildlife. The climate crisis has never been more serious. Bees are dying faster than ever, and the Trump administration is rushing to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas drilling.[1,2]

Your support is what makes all of Environment Colorado's work possible -- and as we gear up for the year ahead, it's critical that we have the resources it takes to win.

Donate today to help ensure that Environment Colorado can start the new year strong.
