Your gift today will go twice as far to stop Bitcoin from killing our climate.

| | | Kathleen, | A few weeks ago, we told you about the action we're taking to stop Bitcoin's climate destruction. But as our work extends into August, we had to share three reasons why we need you to stick with us in the fight against the greed-fueled climate crisis on the Bitcoin front: | 1. Bitcoin relies on cheap and dirty fossil fuels to operate. The power needed to run its specific code takes as much electricity as some entire countries consume per year. To feed its voracious energy appetite, Bitcoin has thrown the fossil fuel industry a BIG lifeline — at the WORST possible time for our planet. | 2. With major financial institutions, like BlackRock and JPMorgan Chase, heavily invested in Bitcoin, their thirst for profits means turning a blind eye to Bitcoin's climate impacts — and their own publicly-stated pledges to reduce emissions. | 3. Unlike crypto-bros and Wall Street whales, Greenpeace USA is 100% independent and accepts no funding from corporations or governments — which is why we're counting on Greenpeacers like you to help us hit our critical $50,000 goal and resource our work against this major threat to climate and communities. | | But right now, we're worried we won't be able to reach our goal. When you make a donation by August 29, your gift can have TWICE the impact on all Greenpeace's important work, including efforts to change Bitcoin's climate-killing code. Will you rush $10 or more to join a special match fund and DOUBLE your future impact in the fight against the climate catastrophe? | If you've saved your payment information with FastAction, your donation will go through immediately: | Together, we can pull the rug out from under this climate killer.
