Our country faces a climate emergency, marked by deadly heatwaves, droughts, and extreme storms. This crisis is largely driven by pollution from fossil fuel transportation.

President Biden must set ambitious clean car standards strong enough to protect our climate. However, big auto companies are pushing for loophole-riddled rules, weaker than those agreed to in 2012.

Join us to urge Biden to stand up to automakers and adopt the world's strongest clean car standards: www.CleanCarsNow.org

On World Sea Turtle Day, Lilimar, Oceana, One More Generation, and children nationwide delivered over 12,500 letters and drawings to the White House. These messages urged President Obama and Secretary Penny Pritzker to protect threatened and endangered sea turtles in U.S. waters.

Representing all 50 states, the letters called for a simple solution: mandatory use of Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) in shrimp nets. These metal grates allow sea turtles and other marine life to escape, preventing their capture by shrimp trawls in the South Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico.

Implementing TEDs would save thousands of sea turtles, reduce seafood waste, and create new markets for U.S. shrimpers.
