Dear Friend,
How much is life expectancy impacted by pollution?
It turns out, the length of your life can depend on your zip code.
In Houston, where I live, life expectancy ranges from 66 to 89 years — a 23-year difference between neighborhoods.
As we’ve seen across the U.S., life expectancy is lower in areas with more toxic facilities and pollution. And racism and classism route these environmental burdens to communities of color and low-income communities.
The fossil fuel industry’s deep exploitation of the region is one of the reasons Earthjustice donors like you came together to open our new Gulf Coast office and fight back.
Friend, everyone deserves a healthy environment. With your matched monthly gift today, we can expand our reach in the epicenter of the fight for climate justice.

We centered our office in Houston to deepen our relationships with people along the coast who are combatting climate change and leading the fight against toxic expansions. But we simply don’t have capacity to say “yes” to all the requests for legal assistance.
So, we are turning to you — our Earthjustice community — to help us take on more cases.
When you sign up for a monthly gift today, your contributions will be matched $1:$1 for a full year of giving. That means you can make double the impact fighting back against the fossil fuel industry’s exploitation and greed.
Monthly giving is really important.
It gives us the financial security we need to strategize and plan ahead. It allows us to say “yes” when we’re needed. And it grows the movement of people who are committed to using the power of the law for good.
Friend, will you help us provide legal support where it’s needed most by starting your monthly gift today?
YES, MATCH MY MONTHLY GIFT: [link removed]
With sincere appreciation,
Jen Powis
Managing Attorney, Gulf Coast Office
