A ruling with far-reaching implications: Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos found Ecuador infringed on the rights of Indigenous Peoples who choose to live in isolation. The court found the country prioritized oil extraction but ignored the presence of Indigenous communities. blogs.edf.org/climate411/202…

Emma Grace Findley should still be here. She was exposed to TCE throughout childhood, and now Congress is considering undoing critical protections against this known carcinogen. We owe it to every family to keep TCE out of communities—for good. vitalsigns.edf.org/story/you-cant…

As President Trump unlawfully attempts to undermine ironclad state authority to protect people from pollution, govs like Gavin Newsom are standing strong in their commitments. California has shown that cutting pollution &growing an economy go hand-in-hand. gov.ca.gov/2025/04/09/glo…

This administration’s actions have made life more expensive, more dangerous, less prosperous, and less secure. But Americans couldn’t be clearer. They don’t want to make do with less. It’s time to deliver much more. My full statement: bit.ly/4jUqGhR

When power plant pollution goes up, so do health risks—especially for kids, seniors and vulnerable communities. Power plants are the top industrial source of carbon pollution in the U.S., and now the EPA wants to stop regulating them. Our communities deserve better.

The cost of everything is up—including electric bills. And the Trump admin wants to kill clean energy tax credits, raising prices even more while investing in costly, unreliable fossil fuels. It’s backward, it’s expensive and not what American families actually need.
