Dear NRDC Activist,

President Biden’s signing of the Inflation Reduction Act put an important climate-saving opportunity on the table. An opportunity that could help cut our climate pollution in half by 2030.

But this landmark law has the fossil fuel industry doing everything in its power to prolong our dependence on oil and gas, throwing our climate progress into reverse. We have waited too long for this moment to give in now.

Our role is clear in this fight: we must support NRDC. They have what it takes to push the Biden administration to take on fossil fuel companies and push for the innovative clean energy investments we need to tackle the climate crisis.

Please make a tax-deductible donation of just $5 today so that NRDC can continue to fight in and out of court to stop the oil industry’s aggressive push for more drilling and to protect our environment on all fronts.

Right now, your gift to support this all-important work will be matched by the daughter of NRDC Founding President John Adams, Kate Adams, and her husband Duke Wiser and their family, who have made a commitment to match all gifts up to $330,000 until January 31.

President Biden’s signing of this potential game-changing law is just the beginning — not the end. We must make sure that the law delivers on its climate promises.

But the oil giants continue their aggressive lobbying of the Biden administration to open more and more of our public wildlands and our coastal areas to destructive oil and gas drilling. We must loudly oppose these handouts to the fossil fuel industry.

Thankfully, with thousands of supporters like you, NRDC is amassing a massive public outcry against more oil and gas leasing on our public lands and in our oceans. And with its legal prowess and grassroots power, NRDC is uniquely effective at taking on the fossil fuel industry and defending our planet from climate catastrophe — and they need and deserve your support.

So, I hope you'll show your support by making a donation to NRDC today. With their help, we can seize this moment, band together for climate protection, and defend our environment on every front. All it takes is $5 to make a huge impact.

Thank you, as always, for your strong commitment to NRDC and our environment.

Sincerely,

Robert Redford
Trustee, NRDC
