Late last year, we asked several times to sign petitions, send comments, and take action aimed at getting the Biden Administration to stop the fossil fuel exports, especially LNG, that are wrecking our climate progress. Thanks to your support we’ve already delivered more than 200,000 comments to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the US …
For years, we’ve fought to stop and shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). If you joined us recently, DAPL is a risky oil pipeline that threatens drinking water and was built without adequate environmental analysis or Tribal consultation. Trump tried to rush the pipeline into operation when he was President. But, he was sloppy …

The Brazilian Cerrado is known as the “birthplace of waters,” and is home to some of the greatest biodiversity in the world. This vast region is also home to many communities of peasants, indigenous peoples, and quilombolas (Afro-Brazilian rural communities).

In less than 100 days, the important climate talks since the Paris Agreement will begin in Glasgow, Scotland. That’s our deadline to secure public and private sector commitments that meet the scale of the climate crisis — which scientists declared a “Code Red for humanity” in their 6th assessment for the United Nations. Since the …

As most of you know, the Line 3 tar sands pipeline in Minnesota is a disaster for our climate and a gross violation Indigenous and treaty rights. For weeks, courageous activists on the front line have taken daily direct action to stop the construction of Line 3, including locking themselves inside sections of pipe, blockading …
When Joe Biden canceled the Keystone XL pipeline, we were elated. After years of fighting this tar sands pipeline, we finally had a President who understood the need to act – and took decisive action on his first day in office.

Like all of you, we cheered big hearty cheers when the Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP) was finally abandoned by Duke and Dominion.

And for all the time we were fighting the pipeline, the people who stood to profit were the corporate executives at Duke and …

Dirty, dishonest, Dominion Energy – the principal company backing the Atlantic Coast Pipeline – is holding their annual shareholders meeting (AGM) online tomorrow, May 6.
