YOUR GIFT MATCHED: A climate catastrophe is imminent. Double your tax-deductible, planet-saving gift NOW!

Southern Resident orcas Cappuccino, Marina, and now young Ripple are all presumed dead. That leaves only 73 Southern Resident orcas left in the wild -- with many starving, grieving, and growing weaker every day. But Big Oil tankers and shipping megaprojects pose a serious threat to the remaining whales. If we don’t act now, we could be the last generation to share the earth with these majestic creatures.


Catastrophic Big Oil and shipping megaprojects are in the works -- and they would be devastating to the remaining Southern Resident orca population. The Roberts Bank T2 shipping terminal project and expanded Trans Mountain Pipeline would increase cargo and tanker ship traffic and disrupt migration patterns of Chinook salmon -- orcas’ primary food source -- driving them further away from the orcas’ habitat. 


How long will we let Big Oil and the shipping industry further endanger helpless, vulnerable Southern Resident orcas?

  

Meanwhile, the climate crisis is only further escalating. That means EVERY habitat for vital species will be at risk. We MUST fight back to save our only Earth before it's too late.   

  

That’s why a generous group of donors have agreed to match all gifts, up to $800,000 – but only until 11:59 p.m. on December 31. 

 

With our biggest fundraising deadline of the year approaching, we’re on track to FALL SHORT of our critical $800,000 goal. Missing crucial goals like this means potentially cutting back on our work, so we had to reach out ASAP. 

 

If you care about a just, sustainable future -- now has never been a better time to give. Please make your $27 tax-deductible membership gift now, before it’s too late!
