Dear NRDC Activist,
Our climate and planet's future are at stake. But right now, the White House is under enormous pressure from Big Oil to open up more of our coastal waters to oil and gas drilling.
New proposed lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico would lock in fossil fuel pollution for decades to come and directly undermine the Biden Administration's own climate and clean energy goals.
We cannot allow these leases to move forward.
It's critical that millions of us make our voices heard right now at the White House. Please do your part by signing NRDC's petition to President Biden calling on him to keep his pledge to cancel all new oil and gas lease sales in America's offshore waters.
After you send your letter, I hope you'll make a tax-deductible donation so that NRDC can keep battling for our climate. Because of a special matching grant, your gift will go three times as far in this all-important work.
This past year, the Biden Administration made a historic commitment to slash greenhouse gas emissions at least in half by 2030. That's a bold promise that now needs to be met with bold action.
However, the administration's move to hand over more of our treasured coastal waters — 80 million acres off the Gulf of Mexico — for the extraction of climate-destroying fossil fuels is fundamentally incompatible with its pledge to lead our country towards a clean energy future.
I hope you'll do your part today and tell President Biden to cancel all oil and gas leases off America's coasts.
Thank you for speaking up during this important moment for our climate and future.
Sincerely,
Robert Redford
Trustee, NRDC
