Save polar bears with a monthly donation

John, right now, the Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the Earth. Melting sea ice due to climate change is threatening the survival of polar bears and their cubs. The last 8 years have been the hottest on record, and while time is running short, it’s not too late. 

Fighting climate change with bold action takes resources. That’s where EDF’s monthly Eco Partner donors come in. For as little as $0.16 a day, you can help fight the climate crisis and save polar bears from going extinct. Will you start a monthly gift of $5 or more today?

We’re looking for 150 new Eco Partners by February 27 — International Polar Bear Day — to ensure polar bears thrive in the wild for generations. If you start a monthly gift of $5 or more, your first 12 gifts will be matched $1-for-$1 by the Robert W. Wilson Charitable Trust, doubling your impact for the next full year.

Donate $5 monthly
First-year impact: $120

First-year impact: $240

First-year impact: $600
Donate $50 monthly
First-year impact: $1,200

As sea ice melts beneath polar bears’ paws, long distances of open water between ice sheets force polar bears to test their swimming skills. While adult polar bears can survive for days at sea, cubs can’t always match their mothers’ swimming strengths and might drown.

The best thing we can do for polar bears is fight climate change and reduce warming. Will you chip in to secure a better future for polar bears by starting a monthly gift today? When you start a monthly gift of $15 or more, we'll send you your very own polar bear adoption kit, including a free gift of your choice. 

As an Eco Partner, you’ll also receive exclusive reports and invitations to join us for virtual events. Every month, you’ll provide EDF with the steady support we need to put long-term plans into action and react quickly in a crisis.

Thank you for everything you do,

Emily Stevenson
