Time to Go Big
NRDC's annual report for an overview about what we've accomplished in 2021.

The science is clear: We must cut carbon pollution and other greenhouse gas emissions by at least half—in this decade—to avert the worst consequences of climate change. There’s no going back, but there is a way forward: We must act now and go big. With climate leaders at every level determined to meet this moment of peril, all while generating jobs and strengthening the economy, now is our time to invest in a world that is healthier, safer, and more just. Backed by supporters like you, NRDC continues to drive that change.
