VIDEO OF NRDC'S ENVIRONMENTAL VICTORIES IN 2011

FOR everyone who participated in any of the NRDC's environmental campaigns in 2011....check out the video on the battles won.....
Watch a Video of YOUR 2011 Victories!

Watch this inspiring 90-second video of all the victories you made possible over the past year. Then please consider making a year-end, tax-deductible gift so that NRDC can go right on defending wildlife and wild places in 2012.

Your support of NRDC made a world of difference to endangered wildlife and wild places in 2011.

I hope you’ll watch this short video of all the important victories you made possible over the past 12 months. This inspiring footage is narrated by NRDC Member and Academy Award nominee David Strathairn.

David enumerates campaign after campaign where your online actions and your generous support made the critical difference …



... You helped us prevail in court over trophy hunters, who wanted to strip the polar bear of its federal protection.

... You helped us save almost 10 million acres of the Alaskan Rainforest from logging and road building.

... And together, we helped persuade President Obama to put a hold on the destructive Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, which threatens our forests, our climate and our health. There were big wins as well for beluga whales, Yellowstone’s buffalo, the Boreal forest and many more -- all made possible thanks to your strong support.


You see, even as this year winds down, our fight for nature is not slowing down at all. We’ll continue working -- even through the holidays -- to protect wildlife and wild places that are now under attack:

  • We’re mobilizing continent-wide opposition to the Northern Gateway tar sands pipeline that would endanger some of the world’s last Spirit Bears and their rainforest home along the rugged coast of British Columbia.
  • We’re waging several courtroom battles to stop Shell from drilling next summer in Alaska’s Polar Bear Seas.
  • We’re fighting to stop Anglo American and other foreign companies that want to build one of the world’s biggest open-pit mines in the heart of Alaska’s Bristol Bay wilderness.
That’s why, after you watch this impressive video wrap-up of the past year’s victories, I hope you’ll feel moved to make a tax-deductible gift today so that NRDC can go right on defending wildlife and wild places in 2012.

Make no mistake: It’s because of you that NRDC is so highly regarded -- by friend and foe alike -- as America’s most effective advocate for the environment. It is your online activism and financial support that stand behind every single victory we won in 2011.

And that is why I look forward to having you fighting alongside us again in 2012.

Sincerely,
Frances
Frances Beinecke
President
Natural Resources Defense Council
