If you think a thriving planet is worth more than fossil fuel profits, you aren’t alone. When reckless polluters harm the climate, they also harm people’s health, vulnerable endangered animals, and the beautiful outdoor spaces so many of us love.

That’s why we’re working to hold corporations accountable for a livable planet because people, wildlife, and nature depend on it. 💚

Your single biggest asset could be funding climate destruction. If this clashes with your deeply held moral beliefs, you aren't alone.

People shouldn't have to choose between saving for retirement and sticking to their values. That's why it is so important to have access to fossil-free retirement options.

ClientEarth USA's latest lawsuit could establish a precedent that any worker in America has a legal right to demand fossil-free options that align with their beliefs.

Next week, the Supreme Court will hear a case that Big Oil hopes will allow the industry to escape accountability for climate damage.

As cities and states across the US have sued major oil companies over their climate deception, the threat of trials have loomed over the corporations. Their response has been to appeal to the Supreme Court to stop these cases before they can ever get that far.

As fossil fuel companies fight to keep communities from having their day in court, climate change rages on and someone has to pay for it. The question is whether the bill will go to polluters or people like you.

As ClientEarth USA attorney Ben Segal put it, many people are "sleepwalking into" participating in something they find abhorrent. If you have a deep moral opposition to climate change, you shouldn't be in the position of choosing between your beliefs and saving for retirement.

But many people are backed into this corner.

That's why we took on our latest lawsuit that could help build those offramps for everyday people to save for their futures without sacrificing their religious or moral values.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to go to New York Climate Week? Follow along with Matthew, a ClientEarth USA attorney.

He was all over Manhattan meeting with colleagues and attending a flurry of sessions on a more sustainable global food system, Brazil's position at a climate crossroads and global climate litigation.

Right now, policy, business, academic, and philanthropic leaders from around the country have descended on New York City for Climate Week. It's fitting for this convening to be right in the heart of the financial industry.

The economy both shapes and is shaped by the changing climate.

Watch as ClientEarth USA legal fellow Jaclyn breaks down this relationship through the lens of one major source of investments in the US: retirement accounts.

Right now, $863 billion of Americans’ retirement savings is invested in fossil fuel companies. We don't think that fossil fuel profits are what most people are thinking about when they're working hard to set aside that money. So we asked, what is the future you really want to fund?

Here are some of the aspirations that our community told us about: Spending time outdoors with family without the threats of extreme weather. Outdoor spaces in cities. Clean air and water. Healthy rivers and wetlands. A sustainable food system. Community gardens. Thriving coral reefs. No more plastic.

We all need a healthy Earth to grow old on. We'll get it by holding corporations accountable for a livable planet.

Temperatures across the United States smashed records this summer. For everyday people, the effects were very real. In a survey, our supporters told us about daily disruptions, health challenges, power outages, wildfires, water shortages, and more impacts of extreme heat they had experienced this summer.

The realities of climate change are already here and none of us are exempt. We must hold corporate polluters accountable for a livable planet.

Do you want to share your experiences with extreme heat in the United States this summer? Take this short survey to share your thoughts: https://brnw.ch/21x5NPW

On Monday, the Environmental Protection Agency announced plans to repeal limits on power plant pollution from coal and natural gas.

This rollback could put billions more in fossil fuel companies’ pockets, while the real cost falls on people and the planet through dirtier air, greater health risks, and worsening climate breakdown.

Coal, gas and oil-fired power plants are responsible for about 25% of America’s total climate pollution, second only to the transportation sector. With emission standards for cars already stripped back earlier this year, eliminating limits on power plant pollution removes critical safeguards against one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions on Earth.

If the government won’t hold reckless polluters accountable for a livable planet, ClientEarth will. Join us.

It isn't radical or controversial to care about nature. The reality is that more than two thirds of Americans agree that addressing threats to nature is important to reduce climate change and prevent natural disasters.

The polluters are the ones who are extreme.

Let's show reckless polluters that we will always stand up for nature together.
