| | | | Kathleen, | Oceans are critical for all life on Earth. They provide food and livelihoods for billions of people worldwide. They support some of the most spectacular arrays of biodiversity. And they're our very best ally in solving the climate crisis. | But our oceans are in trouble, and if something doesn't change soon, so are we. That's why I'm working with Greenpeace USA to pressure international leaders to enact real change — but big corporate interests with deep pockets are doing everything they can to drown us out. | We're up against some powerful forces — but we absolutely will not back down. Will you help us raise our voices and demand a global oceans treaty with your gift of $20 before time runs out? | | Pollution from plastics, destructive fishing practices, warming waters, oil spills, the spread of dead zones — all of these threats are chipping away at the fabric of ocean life. And just last summer, countries began negotiating rules that would allow deep-sea mining to launch as soon as 2024, further hastening the demise of our greatest common resource. | We need a global oceans treaty, and we need it now. It is at our own peril to delay any further. | It's time to ignore the special interests, the greenwashing, the politics, and the inertia that tends to drag bold ideas into the ground. It's time we get this done — for every life on Earth. That's why I'm adding my voice to the ranks of Greenpeace activists fighting tooth and nail to save our seas. | But it takes major resources to take on big polluters, and without your help, the fossil fuel and plastics industries will easily quash our resistance. Please, can I count on your donation of $20 tonight to power Greenpeace USA in the fight to demand ocean sanctuaries before it's too late? | | It will take all of us together to win a global oceans treaty. Thank you. | Jane Fonda Actor, activist (and fellow Greenpeacer) | | | | Greenpeace USA never takes a dime from corporations or governments. Everything we do is thanks to the generous support of people like you! | | | Greenpeace 1300 Eye Street NW, STE 1100 East, Washington, DC 20005 | 1-800-722-6995 | Greenpeace Inc. is a non-profit, tax-exempt, 501(c)(4) organization.
