Dear NRDC Activist,
We're facing a climate crisis — but even as scientists ring the alarm bells, Trump is green-lighting one dirty fossil fuel project after the next.
I'll be blunt — we are facing a gargantuan, multi-billion dollar industry that is dead set on opening our coastlines and last wild places to oil and gas drilling.
It's tough to keep up with this unrelenting assault on our environment, but we're doing it, with 47 courtroom wins against the administration under our belt so far — and in order to keep fighting Trump and his allies in Big Oil and Big Coal, we desperately need your commitment, your activism, and your financial support.
Today is your last chance to have your gift go twice as far when you support NRDC during our July Matching Gift Campaign. Please — rush an emergency gift before midnight to help us hit our $250,000 goal.
The clock is ticking — please don't pass this opportunity up.

Dear NRDC Activist,
We are fast approaching a point of no return on climate change.
Scientists have stated unequivocally that we must take rapid, far-reaching action to phase out fossil fuels and transition to cleaner, smarter energy if we're to beat the clock and avoid global catastrophe.
But we've wasted far too much time already and our window of opportunity is rapidly shrinking.
We must heed the old proverb that says, "If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging." The Trump administration has spent the last two years digging us ever deeper into a hole of fossil fuel dependence and climate destruction by aggressively approving massive oil, gas, and coal projects.
It's clear: President Trump will dig us past the point of no return on the climate crisis — and we must take action in and out of the courtroom. NRDC needs to raise $250,000 by July 31 to do just that and I'm asking for your help: Donate now to stand strong with NRDC to stop Trump's radical fossil fuel agenda and your gift will be DOUBLED for even greater impact.
In less than three years in office, the Trump administration has pushed to revive the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, allow oil companies to drill in the Arctic wildlife habitats, and commence seismic blasting to find oil and gas reserves in the coastal waters of our East Coast. They even plan to gouge an open pit coal mine out of scenic land on the doorstep of Bryce Canyon National Park.
These climate-wrecking projects must be stopped.
Thankfully, NRDC's legal team is fighting back in federal court on all of these key fronts and more — and winning. This organization's track record of success is phenomenal. In fact, NRDC has already scored 47 legal victories over the Trump administration and counting, proving that courtroom action can slam the brakes on this president's pro-polluter agenda.
But with time running out to ensure a livable planet, we have never needed NRDC more than we do right now. Please give them your most generous support today while your contribution can be matched.
I hope that future generations will look back one day and breathe a sigh of clean, healthy relief, knowing that when all the facts were known, you and I did everything we could. We corrected our course and we changed the outcome.
Thank you.
Robert Redford
Trustee, NRDC
