There has never been a more critical time for climate action. Scientists project that if every nation honors their recent climate commitments, we could limit warming to just 1.8 degrees (F).
Make no mistake: This is a Code Red moment and every fraction of a degree matters.
According to a recent analysis by the Washington Post, nearly 1 in 3 U.S. residents live in a county that was hit by an extreme weather disaster this summer.
Even those of us who escaped disaster felt the heat - literally - from the multi-day, deadly heat waves that affected 2 in 3 of us.
John, your Giving Tuesday gift will meet the urgency of this moment by supplying critical funding for EDF’s 3-prong plan to:
- Slashing methane pollution from the oil and gas sector - the single fastest, most cost-effective way to slow global warming in the near term,
- Cutting carbon pollution from transportation and electricity, and
- Harnessing the power of nature to protect our communities from an ever-increasing range of climate-related threats.
Please donate or start a monthly gift before midnight tonight to earn the biggest matching gift possible this season – not $2, but $3 for every $1 you donate. (And don’t forget: Monthly gifts will be matched for a full year!)
A clean, healthy world gives us so much. Thank you for giving back.
Happy Giving Tuesday,
Emily Stevenson
