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.

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. (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:

• 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. TRIPLE your impact to stop fossil fuel giants >>
• 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. TRIPLE your impact to cut power plant pollution >>
• 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. TRIPLE your impact to permanently safeguard Bristol Bay >>
• 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. TRIPLE your impact to save bees and pollinators >>
• 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. TRIPLE your impact to secure safe drinking water for all >>
• 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. TRIPLE your impact to secure environmental justice >>

These victories are proof that your donation today is the single best investment you can make to save our environment, health, and climate in 2022. With your support, NRDC will never stop fighting.

Please stand with NRDC at this pivotal moment — and fund our tried-and-tested, winning combination of legal firepower, rigorous science, and hard-hitting advocacy.Even just $5 makes a difference.

Your tax-deductible gift will be TRIPLE matched, up to $400,000.
