I SUPPORT THE NATURAL RESOURCES DEFENSE COUNCILMitch Bernard, NRDC’s Chief Counsel, speaks out about how litigation is the best way to beat back the Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle environmental safeguards.Please visit NRDC.ORG and you’ll see why I support them.  NRDC is a not-for-profit law firm whose clients are Nature and environmental safety.  Their work is  based on responsible scientific research.  They are not just lobbyists or activists.  They fight for us in court, with a record of legal victories vital to good environmental policy, regulation and legislation. They work on local, national and international cases.

See many more NRDC videos.

Donations to NRDC are used to fight the Trump administration’s anti-environment attacks and for other campaigns to protect the environment.

“The mission of the Natural Resources Defense Council is to safeguard the Earth: its people, its plants and animals, and the natural systems on which all life depends.”
