Let’s protect what matters, together

Extreme weather and pollution are threatening our way of life — our health, our jobs and our families. What happens over the next four years could make all the difference, for better or worse.

To protect the people and the places we love, we’ll have to hold our leaders accountable, and drastically cut pollution too. 

Here’s what’s at stake — and what we can do about it

  • Extreme weather disasters devastate lives, destroy neighborhoods and degrade our natural world. They are dangerous, they’re getting worse and they don’t care who we voted for. 
  • The policies of the Trump administration will pour fuel on the fire, increasing the pollution that makes extreme weather worse. Fortunately, it’s not too late to protect what matters.
  • The solutions we need already exist. The move to a clean energy economy is already underway, creating good jobs, protecting our health and improving people’s lives — today.

Environmental Defense Fund has a proven track record of combining rigorous science and economics while working with a wide range of partners to solve problems just like these.
