We must focus on a rapid transition to 100 percent clean energy in the United States by 2035 and similarly ambitious goals in other climate-critical countries.
Transportation accounts for the largest share of U.S. climate pollution. NRDC works to help transition all vehicles to zero emissions while giving people more ways to get around without a car.
To ensure a healthy future for our children and communities, we must address the sources of the pervasive toxic chemicals that are linked to myriad health issues, from cancer to hormone disruption.
NRDC stands in solidarity with U.S. communities on the frontlines of the fight for safe drinking water—often BIPOC and low-income, who face compounding environmental injustices.
Our oceans are overfished, exploited for oil and gas, choked with pollution, and dangerously acidifying as the waters heat up. NRDC is determined to turn the tide.
Since helping to pass the Clean Water Act in the 1970s, NRDC has continued to fight for a safe and sufficient water supply and for actions that keep pollution out of freshwater ecosystems—for the benefit of all.
To successfully fight against all fossil fuel threats, we must directly challenge the dirty energy companies and their allies in power perpetuating a dangerous status quo.
Together with Indigenous leaders and local partners, NRDC is supporting efforts to save critical ecosystems from unsustainable exploitation for timber, fossil fuels, lithium, and other resources.
Ensuring that our air is safe to breathe has been integral to NRDC’s mission since the organization’s founding in 1970—the same year that the Clean Air Act was passed. More than 50 years later, we’re still fighting to curb air…
