Dear Kathleen,

Polluting Power Plant

Kathleen —

In a supremely stupid 6-3 ruling, the highest court in the land has handed down a dangerous and irresponsible decision that severely limited one of the most effective tools for addressing the climate crisis.

The Supreme Court has just limited the ability of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate emissions from power plants — which are one of the biggest emitters of carbon-based pollution.

This ruling is going to hurt people. It's going to hurt wildlife. It's going to make it easier for business owners to challenge clean air regulations. If there was ever a doubt that this Supreme Court favors the powerful over the people, it's gone!

But we're not done. I promise you Greenpeace is going to keep on fighting. We're not going to let radicals in robes put our future at risk. Please fight alongside us by making your emergency gift to Greenpeace USA now!

This Supreme Court has shown a willingness to decimate women's rights, voting rights, and union organizing. Now, they're literally aligning with fossil fuel interests against the best interests of the American people.

In 2018, air pollution from burning fossil fuels like coal and gas was responsible for about 1 in 5 deaths worldwide. These justices have ruled in favor of sacrificing more lives to enrich millionaire coal and oil barons.

MAKE YOUR EMERGENCY GIFT NOW

What they've done dramatically weakens the Clean Air Act — one of the most important environmental laws of the last 50 years. Presidents have, quite reasonably, used it to help regulate carbon-based emissions, which is critical to preventing the worst impacts of climate change.

But the big fossil fuel companies and the politicians in their pockets didn't like that one bit. 19 attorneys general and two coal companies challenged the EPA's authority.

We must call on governments and corporations to shift their mindsets from exploitation to protection, and build a truly sustainable future for all! Please raise your voice for the oceans and the planet by giving to Greenpeace USA now.

The more climate change threatens our planet, the more we need our oceans to stay healthy and thriving. THIS is the time to stop deep-sea mining before it does IRREVERSIBLE damage to our planet. Will you help?

DON'T STAND FOR IT. FIGHT BACK WITH YOUR GIFT TO GREENPEACE.

Kathleen, I want to be clear about something. This isn't just about the authority of one federal agency. THIS IS LIFE AND DEATH.

The EPA, and the Clean Air Act, have been responsible for some of the most historic and life-saving changes brought about to improve the quality of our air, and to help drive a response to the climate crisis.

Millions of lives have been saved by laws and policies that protect our air. And now, millions of lives are at risk.

The climate crisis is causing extreme wildfires. Devastating hurricanes. Rising tides. And warming waters that threaten marine wildlife and the future of the world's life systems. I don't know how the Supreme Court can ignore the evidence. Because their children and grandchildren, people we love, human lives and wildlife everywhere, are going to pay the price.

Fed up with this? I am. Ready to give up? Never! The more they hand out their injustice, the more motivated I am to fight back. How about you?

In order to stay independent and do the important work we do, Greenpeace never takes any money from corporations or government. We rely entirely on support from members like you! Our movement is by the people, for the people. Our independence is our strength.

Please make your emergency gift to Greenpeace USA and help lead the fight for our climate, for our planet, for future generations ... and for JUSTICE.

For our climate and our future,

John Noel
Senior Climate Campaigner, Greenpeace USA

P.S. The Supreme Court just handed you a lump of coal. How's that for justice? I hope you're as supremely furious about this as I am because your help is needed NOW.

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