Our public lands are under attack... Again.

In a push to convert public lands into corporate profits, congress is attempting to repeal the Roadless Rule.

We need you help- Submit your comment today at sc.org/roadless, and call your representatives in support of our national forests!

We made a list of what we want to leave the next generation, and it goes like this:

Clean air and safe drinking water
A fossil fuel-free economy
Outdoor access for all

You should get to create an estate plan that reflects your wishes too! Check out Giving Docs, our free estate planning tool🏡

Our national forests = our lungs, our water, our escape. Revoking the "Roadless Area Conservation Rule" would be devastating. Submit your public comment today at sc.org/roadless

At a time when electricity prices are rising, it is unconscionable for the EPA to deny access to clean, cheap energy for those who can least afford it.

The Solar for All program was expected to generate $350 million in annual savings for low-income and disadvantaged households—and create 200K jobs.

Despite our public utilities being coal free since 2019, coal dust still coats the cars, homes, and lungs of Mainer's living near the Cassidy Point coal pile. Tell Portland City Council that Maine residents say NO to coal!

With the help of @defendourhealth.bsky.social and the Conservation Law Foundation, Portland citizens have banded together to cover the Cassidy Point coal pile and end the use of coal in Maine! Join us today to protect the health of Mainers from dirty coal

This was a very busy legislative session. Of the thousands of bills, we were actively tracking over 130, and delivered 39 pieces of testimony. There will be more ‘emergency’ bills introduced next year in the shorter legislative session, so stay tuned!🦞

As soon as tomorrow, House Republicans seek to overturn plans for protected lands in Montana and North Dakota, instead wanting to turn millions of acres of leases over for oil + gas drilling, and mining.

Contact your House Representative TODAY- tell them what the legacy of public lands mean to you!
