Killing marine life for short-term profit

Kathleen-

Together we can end corporate America's reliance on single-use plastics!

May I be frank? I'm a bit surprised we haven't heard from you yet.

You know how dire the threat is. Global corporations such as Coca-Cola are destroying the world's oceans and killing marine life for short-term profit. We can no longer afford their throwaway-plastic business model. It's time for companies like Coke to innovate new types of packaging.

In addition, my colleagues emailed about an exciting opportunity for you to bring even more strength to the fight against Coke, the oil industry and everything that threatens our environment. Any gift that you make between now and the end of the year will be doubled!

A group of donors who are passionate about protecting our oceans has created a matching gift fund of $167,000. Whatever amount you can give now, can be matched dollar-for-dollar. In essence, your gift will be twice as large.

Why have you not taken advantage of this offer, Kathleen? You could do twice as much good, have twice as much clout, and make twice as much of a difference. 

We're forming a wall of resistance along our coasts — resistance to corporate polluters, including Big Oil, climate change deniers, craven politicians — to anyone and anything that threatens our oceans and the wildlife that call them home. Please join us in forming that wall.

We can succeed, but only if we all work our hardest.

Sincerely,

Sarah Rasmussen
Digital Director, Greenpeace USA

P.S. The matching offer is very generous, but it's not open-ended. It has an upper limit of $167,000 — which we haven't reached yet — and it expires on Sunday night. Please make a donation now, before it slips your mind.

Greenpeace never takes a dime from corporations or governments. Everything we do is thanks to the generous support of people like you!
