Because the earth needs a good lawyer

When we say we’ll sue, it’s not a threat.

It’s a promise — a promise that until we achieve a better future for all, our pursuit for justice will never rest.

We will win this fight — for the wild spaces we love, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the future of life itself. Give today, and your gift will be matched $1-for-$1
