Donald Trump is about to propose massive cuts to our renewable energy programs. He's aiming to slash vital programs promoting renewable power and energy efficiency by more than 70%. But Congress still has to sign off on these cuts -- so we need your help to stop them! Tell your Senators: Don't gut our renewable energy programs!

Donald Trump signed an Executive Order threatening the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument with fossil fuel development. The Department of the Interior is accepting public comments on whether to let Big Oil destroy this precious marine Monument. So we need you to speak up and help save this special place! Tell the Secretary of the Interior: NO fossil fuel development in Marianas Trench!

For nearly 50 years, the National Environmental Policy Act—NEPA—has been an empowering legal tool that allows communities to defend themselves and their environment from dangerous, rushed or poorly planned federal or industry projects. Our oldest environmental law ensures that your community has a say when special interests want to build a toxic waste incinerator in your neighborhood or a dangerous pipeline next to your child’s school. But over time, polluter interests and their allies in Congress have tried to gut this protection. Your representatives are accountable to you—not to polluting industries. Tell them to stand up for NEPA now! Over the past six years, 180 pieces of legislation have sought to weaken or waive NEPA protections. Some leaders in the 115th Congress have signaled their interest in attacking NEPA, and with President Trump’s appointment of an anti-regulatory cabinet, the attacks are bound to have devastating impacts. NEPA is woven so deeply into our framework that we often take it for granted. It’s so fundamental to our democratic process that it’s considered the “environmental Magna Carta.” Dirty industries and their advocates in Congress who seek to undermine our basic protections know they can’t do it head on by sponsoring legislation to eliminate NEPA. They’ve tried that strategy repeatedly and failed. Now they’re employing strategies to weaken NEPA instead, such as mandating special NEPA waivers for some projects or industries, cutting down the time periods for public comment or agency review, or imposing arbitrary deadlines no matter how complex the issue. Lawmakers attach these sneak attacks to important, must-pass bills, such as infrastructure funding bills. If they’re successful, informed decision making and the ability of people to defend themselves from government and corporate overreach will suffer. This “death by a thousand cuts” has been going on for years. Some lawmakers and corporations malign NEPA as “bad for business.” They omit, however, that NEPA reduces public controversy, builds consensus with local officials and ensures that projects are done correctly from the start, often saving time and money. Moreover, government data shows that for decades the U.S. economy has expanded even as environmental rules continue to protect public health and the wildlands and wildlife our country needs to thrive. It’s time to face the facts and stop vilifying NEPA. Tell your representatives in Congress that your right to be heard is not negotiable. Urge them to protect NEPA—your voice!

The 2,000-mile stretch of land between the U.S. and Mexico contains one of the most diverse ecosystems in North America with wildlife such as the endangered Mexican gray wolf, jaguar, bighorn sheep, and ocelot calling it home. It is also where President Trump wants to build a 30-foot border wall. Not only will a wall between the U.S. and Mexico be disastrous for wildlife and the environment, but it will also threaten the economy and communities living along the border. We need your help to stop it. Politicians in Washington D.C. are looking to fund the construction of Trump’s wall in the U.S.-Mexico border through unprecedented and underhanded legislative gimmicks. A vote to fund a border wall will soon go up for a vote in the House and we need you to tell your representative to oppose any efforts to fund it. Construction of a wall is likely to create roadblocks in the migration paths of several threatened and endangered species and will also hinder the natural flow of waterways which could cause devastating flooding, endangering border communities and wildlife. The border wall is yet another gimmick used by the Trump administration to intimidate communities, particularly Latino and immigrant ones, from exercising their civil rights, including their right to a healthy environment. It is a symbol of fear that would come at the expense of our public lands, wildlife and environmental safeguards that protect border and immigrant communities. It’s justified by fiction, relying on the notion that our border communities must be militarized and somehow deserve fewer protections under the law. A wall is a distraction from the very real issues border communities face, and a waste of money. Our border communities need funding for schools, environmental clean-up and wildlife protection, not a divisive wall. Tell Congress to fund communities and natural landscapes, not senseless walls.

Donald Trump's Interior Department announced that it's taking the first step toward massively expanding oil drilling in our oceans. If Big Oil is allowed to drill in these areas, it will be only a matter of time before the next oil disaster. Fragile marine ecosystems and coastal communities would be at risk. We need your help to stop Trump's plan! Help us reach 25,000 comments: Stop Big Oil from drilling in protected areas in our oceans!

Monsanto and other junk food and chemical companies are pushing for this non-labeling because they know most Americans don't want to eat GMOs. These companies are aiming to protect their profits no matter what the cost to our health or environment. We need your help to stop them. Tell the USDA: We need clear, on-package labels on GMOs!

Bees are in trouble largely thanks to neonicotinoid pesticides. But Kroger could stop this. It could stop selling food produced with neonics. Friends of the Earth members like you convinced the world’s largest garden retailers, including Lowe’s and Home Depot, to stop selling neonics. It didn’t happen overnight -- but with enough pressure, these companies did the right thing. Now, we need your help to push Kroger to act too. Tell Kroger to say NO to neonics and help save the bees!

Bees are in trouble largely thanks to neonicotinoid pesticides. But the EPA could stop this. It's reviewing imidacloprid -- one of the most widely used neonics. Comments are due July 24th -- so we need you to speak up NOW! Help us reach 40,000 comments: Tell the EPA to ban this widely used bee-killing pesticide!

Leaked documents reveal that Energy Transfer Partners — the company behind the Dakota Access Pipeline — hired the private security firm TigerSwan to spy on activists and organizations working to stop dangerous pipelines. Food & Water Watch even found an infiltrator posing as a volunteer in our Chicago office, spying and collecting internal details about our organizing strategy. Now we know that Energy Transfer Partners used information improperly gathered by TigerSwan in North Dakota to convince state law enforcement officials to target water protectors, but we won't let oil and gas industry scare tactics stop us. In fact, we're going after them for violating our constitutional right to privacy. SIGN THE PETITION to demand Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan investigate TigerSwan's illegal spying in Chicago.

Bees are in trouble largely thanks to neonicotinoid pesticides. But the EPA could stop this. It's reviewing clothianidin and thiamethoxam -- two of the most widely used neonics. Comments are due July 24th -- so we need you to speak up NOW! Help us reach 40,000 comments: Tell the EPA to ban these widely used neonics!

Washington State is about to give coal companies permission to pour coal dust into the fragile Columbia River. This would destroy the ecosystem and contribute to climate chaos. The Washington Department of Ecology could stop this. It could deny a key water pollution permit. But we need your help to convince it to act!
