You don’t want to miss this, friend!

Tomorrow at 6:30PM ET LCV is hosting a virtual Activist Briefing, unpacking the draft 5 year plan on offshore oil and gas leasing and how you can get involved and make a real impact here. We have a great line-up for you! I will be joined by Liz Mering from the Cook Inketkeeper, Loreley Godfrey from Seacoast Students for Sustainability, and Nadine Guillory from Climate Action VA.

In light of recent news that Senator Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia) may be walking away from the reconciliation package containing historic investments in climate action, we have to push even harder for the Biden administration to achieve protections for climate, communities, and public health through executive action. That’s why we are asking for YOUR help to make sure that the Department of Interior finalizes a Five-Year Program that contains no new offshore drilling leases. 
  This is a critical moment, friend. RSVP now to join the fight!

See you there,

Sara Chieffo
VP, Government Affairs

If you are unable to attend, RSVP anyways and we will send you a recording of the event! 

Friend – With fires, floods, and record-breaking heat, the entire country is feeling the effects of climate change this summer. But just as we need to be moving away from fossil fuels, the Biden administration is considering whether to expand offshore drilling in the next 5 years – and we have less than 90 days to flood the Administration with public comments opposing new drilling.

On Wednesday July 20th at 6:30 PM EST, we’re holding a virtual activist briefing on offshore drilling. LCV’s Vice President of Government Affairs, Sara Chieffo will give you an inside look at Biden’s draft 5-year plan and what’s at stake for our coasts and communities. We’ll also hear from Liz Mering from the Cook Inketkeeper, Loreley Godfrey from Seacoast Students for Sustainability, and Nadine Guillory from Climate Action VA, and walk you through the process of submitting your own public comment. RSVP now to reserve your spot and submit a question in advance!



High gas prices are putting the Biden administration under enormous pressure to expand offshore drilling – but we know we can’t drill our way to lower gas prices and we need to expose the fossil fuel industry's lies. This summer is our chance to stop new offshore drilling from being greenlit

This summer is our chance to stop new offshore drilling from being greenlit – RSVP for the briefing to learn more and get involved in this critical moment.

Offshore drilling hurts frontline and coastal communities who already bear the brunt of the harm from toxic pollution and climate change’s impacts, with the continued inevitability of spills, harms to public health, and disastrous effects for the tourism and fishing industries on which so many of these communities rely. Ensuring there is no new leasing is a matter of environmental and climate justice, and we need to hear your voice in this fight! Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to make a difference. 

We look forward to seeing you there,
