The future is uncertain, but our mission is not.

We sued Donald Trump over 150 times as president in his first term—fighting every time for the planet and its people. We will not be shaken. We will not be silenced.

We shouldn’t have to shoulder the responsibility of solving the plastics crisis when the industry urgently needs to change. But we can still make lifestyle changes to reduce our exposure to harmful microplastics. Learn more tips at https://t.co/HfkL2l90or

The Trump administration made a backroom deal to pay TotalEnergies $1 billion to cancel offshore wind projects. But states are fighting back to stop President Trump from destroying these clean energy jobs and the affordable electricity they’ll build. https://t.co/5jl0XWh56Q

The Trump administration wants to fast-track oil and gas drilling in the Western Arctic by cutting corners on environmental reviews and putting clean water, wildlife, and communities at risk. https://t.co/fGhnx9d9t1

Nobody wants to eat food with toxic chemicals, but pesticide use is a fixture of modern agriculture. Our managing director of food & agriculture, Rebecca Riley, talks about finding a middle ground that protects people (and bees) in the latest episode of What the Earth: https://t.co/ysIFzcNDwe

The Marine Mammal Protection Act has safeguarded ocean life for decades, but Congress is trying to weaken key protections against harmful industrial activity. We’re fighting back on multiple fronts, including in court to defend these marine species. https://t.co/DUqvmWNUXe

New York can protect families from toxic “forever chemicals” by passing a new state law to limit PFAS. These chemicals are unnecessarily added to everyday products and are linked to cancer and other serious health risks. Lawmakers must act now. https://t.co/a61zF3pvab

Solar power is thriving around the world, bringing clean, reliable energy to communities that need it most.

[NRDC 🌎🏡 @NRDC]

Clean energy is meeting rising global demand without the need for dirty fossil fuels. While countries around the world move forward, the Trump administration is holding the U.S. back by delaying permits and issuing stop-work orders to halt clean energy progress.

[NRDC 🌎🏡 @NRDC]

In Brazil, solar generation grew 24% last year, surpassing fossil fuels for the first time.
That growth is largely driven by more rooftop systems that help power homes and local businesses.

In a massive step backwards, the Trump administration repealed the Public Lands Rule, putting short-term profits ahead of rural communities, wildlife, and clean drinking water instead of protecting and restoring public lands for future generations. https://t.co/4GNXeHjhlc

By rolling back critical drinking water protections for PFAS ‘forever chemicals’, President Trump’s EPA is siding with corporate polluters rather than the health and safety of families across the country. https://t.co/ATcF72XTRs
