[ [link removed] ]Trimple your impact for the planet! Donate today!
Dear NRDC Activist,
We have a big update! Starting right now, every single donation to NRDC
will TRIPLE in size — thanks to a newly launched $400,000 matching gift
offer from an anonymous donor.
This is an incredible match opportunity, and it couldn't come at a more
urgent time. The impacts of the climate crisis are getting more severe
faster than scientists predicted and we've reached a make-or-break moment
for the Earth and for humanity.
[ [link removed] ]Make a $5 tax-deductible
gift to NRDC and your donation will be TRIPLE MATCHED, up to $400,000.
That means you'll make 3x the impact to stop powerful fossil fuel industry
polluters... 3x the impact to protect wilderness and wildlife... 3x the
impact to prevent climate disaster.
NRDC is waging an across-the-board campaign, both in and out of court, to
cut pollution and push back on the powerful fossil fuel industry, to get
our government out of the climate-wrecking fossil fuel business, and to
protect wild places and wildlife from industrial assault.
But we must do more if we are to stave off climate catastrophe. ([ [link removed] ]Take
action NOW by making a tax-deductible gift of $5 or more
that TRIPLES in impact, up to $400,000.)
As we double down on our efforts in 2022, pro-polluter forces will spend a
fortune to derail our progress.
But we know how to win against these forces, especially in court: we won
90% of the resolved lawsuits filed against the Trump administration and
its anti-environment agenda. And that track record of success continued
into 2021, thanks to your support:
*Â Keystone pipeline was permanently shelved: Capping a decade-long fight
that included three lawsuits filed by NRDC, President Biden revoked a
crucial permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, which terminated the
project. But now, we must block other destructive pipelines, like
Mountain Valley, Line 3, Line 5, and Dakota Access, which together
would transport huge amounts of climate-wrecking oil and gas.

*Â Climate-busting regulations stopped: NRDC won a court case to halt
Trump-era regulations that would have done next to nothing to reduce —
or could have even increased — carbon pollution from coal-fired power
plants. But the Supreme Court will soon hear an appeal to overturn
this decision, and NRDC's legal team is preparing for this
monumentally important case now. [ [link removed] ]TRIPLE your impact to cut power

*Â Toxic mega-mine thwarted: The Army Corps of Engineers denied a key
permit for Pebble Mine, a colossal, open-pit gold and copper mega-mine
that would defile the incomparable Bristol Bay in Alaska. But the
mining company has not given up and is appealing the decision.

*Â EPA commits to ban neurotoxic pesticide: NRDC won another court case
resulting in the EPA's ban on the use of chlorpyrifos on food — a
toxic pesticide linked to learning disabilities in children. But a
torrent of neonic pesticides still threaten pollinators, our food
supply, and our health. [ [link removed] ]TRIPLE your impact to save bees and

*Â Dangerous lead pipes will be replaced: A major court settlement, led
by local citizens and NRDC, ensures the city of Newark, NJ will remove
all remaining lead service lines (or lead water pipes). But other
communities still suffer from high rates of lead contamination that
are harming children. [ [link removed] ]TRIPLE your impact to secure safe drinking

*Â New fossil fuel protections: The Biden administration has proposed to
withdraw federal lands surrounding Chaco Culture National Historical
Park from new oil and gas leasing for 20 years. But more must be done
so that frontline tribal communities can dictate the future of sacred
landscapes. [ [link removed] ]TRIPLE your impact to secure environmental justice >>

investment you can make to save our environment, health, and climate in
2022. With your support, NRDC will never stop fighting.
