Dear NRDC Activist,

The holiday spirit — that we're-all-in-this-together feeling — has never
been more vital than it is right now, as we face the stark choice ahead of
us: to band together with everything we've got to fight catastrophic
climate change...

...or to sit back and watch as extreme weather worsens, our forests
disappear, our oceans acidify, our wildlife die, and our neighbors suffer.

I know my choice. And there's no question about NRDC's choice: we're
fighting.

That's why today, we're thrilled to launch NRDC's first-ever Holiday
Drive, with a goal to raise $100,000 to save the planet by December 24.

[ [link removed] ]A
generous donor has agreed to MATCH every dollar donated before the
deadline, up to our $100,000 goal. Please don't wait — pitch in with your
tax-deductible gift of just $5 or more
for the environment now!

Your donation to the Holiday Drive will immediately double, going twice as
far to help:

* Support our work alongside activists in low-income neighborhoods and
communities of color to ensure everyone has access to clean, lead-free
water. [ [link removed] ]Double your impact now >>
* Strengthen our efforts in and out of the courtroom to protect
endangered species like gray wolves, which face brutal,
state-sanctioned attacks in the Northern Rockies that could push the
species back to the brink of extinction. [ [link removed] ]Your gift goes twice as
far for wolves >>
* Defend the one-of-a-kind wilderness treasure that is Big Cypress
National Preserve in Florida's Everglades from being razed for the
sake of climate-busting oil and gas drilling. [ [link removed] ]Your donation to
protect wild lands will be MATCHED >>
* Demand decisive action on climate change from the Biden
administration, including deeper investment in clean energy and a
faster and bolder shift away from fossil fuels. [ [link removed] ]Help power this
urgent fight x2 >>

[ [link removed] ]Make your gift for a greener, more equitable future today and it will
DOUBLE in impact — meaning NRDC's lawyers, activists, and scientists can
fight twice as hard for clean air, safe drinking water, thriving wildlife,
and a healthy planet. Even $5 makes a
difference!

Thanks for always sticking with us. This is a fight I know we can win —
but only if we face it head-on together.

Sincerely,
