Do you want to bail out oil companies that walk away from their legal cleanup obligations? That's just what could happen if a rule change proposed by the Trump administration goes into effect. It’s a dream come true for Big Oil and a nightmare for taxpayers and the planet.
Zombie wells spew methane, contaminate water supplies, and pollute the air. And now the Trump administration is taking steps to make it even easier for oil companies to leave taxpayers to foot the bill for these toxic wells. 🧵
Using a #SupremeCourt ruling on religious freedom to fight climate change may sound unconventional, but it could be the key to cutting off a major financial pipeline for the fossil fuel industry. Learn more about our newest lawsuit: brnw.ch/21x4IeL
We’re taking Thermo Fisher to court. 🧵 The multinational corporation failed to provide an employee with a retirement fund option aligned with his religious beliefs. So we’re suing to protect the rights of American workers and open a new front in the fight against climate change.
In yet another attempt at rolling back climate regulations for polluters, the Trump administration is targeting the Climate Disclosure Rule to let companies hide the truth about climate risk. (1/3)
With @nrdc.org, we helped gather 91,000 petitions urging JPMorgan Chase and Santander to stop backing an LNG project that would harm whales and other vulnerable animals in the Gulf of California. Last week, they were brought straight to these banks by @cclimaticas.bsky.social.
🌡️ Extreme heat is sweeping North America, while smoke from Canadian #wildfires is reaching the Northeast just as fans travel to the region for the World Cup finals. We spoke with Dr. Marc Alessi from @ucs.org about what climate change means for soccer and other outdoor sports.
Why is the federal government suing American states to protect oil companies? Here's what you need to know ⬇️ Read more on our website: brnw.ch/21x3Ma0
The world’s biggest sporting event should not be a billboard for fossil fuel pollution. The World Cup should be about the joy, excitement, and community that soccer brings. Demand FIFA stop accepting sponsorship money from reckless polluters. SIGN NOW: brnw.ch/21x3qLu
Should reckless corporations fueling the climate crisis be allowed to use the world’s biggest sporting event to clean up their image? We don’t think so.
Is your retirement fund managing the biggest financial risk of our era? If you have any retirement savings, you may be exposed to climate risk, or the adverse financial impacts stemming from a changing climate. Learn more about how climate risks can ripple through your 401(k): brnw.ch/21x2BtX
The deadly truth? Exploitation is destroying the ocean. Legal action can stop this. ClientEarth is fighting for a healthy ocean with 16 active cases. For a limited time, all donations will be matched to help power the legal fight to protect the planet. 💙 brnw.ch/21x1Upt
Are you willing to sacrifice blue whale calves or the critically endangered vaquita porpoise for more fossil fuels? Santander Bank is backing a destructive fossil fuel project in the Gulf of California. It would turn this biodiversity hotspot into a shipping corridor for LNG tankers.
The largest heart on Earth is the size of a small elephant. It belongs to the blue whale. Right now, a massive gas project threatens to destroy their home in the Gulf of California forever. If we work together, we can protect this irreplaceable ecosystem. #WhalesOrGas brnw.ch/21x1mGQ
Santander Bank is backing a fossil fuel project that would turn the Gulf of California, a calving ground for blue whales, into a shipping corridor for liquefied natural gas tankers. We cannot sacrifice these whales for the sake of more climate-harming gas. Take action today! brnw.ch/21x1hzm
When climate disasters hit the physical world, they hit your retirement savings too. ClientEarth is going to court to make sure the people managing your retirement money live up to their legal duty to assess and protect you from climate risks. Learn more >> brnw.ch/21x1dCw
A climate time bomb is ticking in America’s retirement accounts. We’re going to court to stop it. Most of us work hard, put money aside with each paycheck, and trust it will be there when we retire. But that trust is being betrayed.
What's going on with big oil and #SCOTUS? This week, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a case that's essentially about whether cities and states can sue oil companies for climate change or not.
BREAKING: Trump’s EPA repeals the 2009 endangerment finding. The endangerment finding wasn’t politics — it was science translated into law. Repealing it doesn’t change the facts. It weakens the federal government’s ability to curb climate pollution and protect communities.
Oil companies are taking advantage of glaring loopholes in Illinois. A new report from ClientEarth and the Environmental Advocacy Center of the Bluhm Legal Clinic at @northwesternlaw.bsky.social has exposed a massive data gap in the state’s orphan well records.
ClientEarth USA’s executive director Danielle Lackey was one of the thousands of people who lost their home to a wildfire in 2025. Together, we can hold the companies fueling and profiting off the climate crisis accountable for the damage they have caused. Watch Danielle's story > brnw.ch/21wYrYx
You don’t have to be a lawyer to protect the planet. You just have to care. There’s still time to have your donation matched before the end of the year. Double your impact today 💚 brnw.ch/21wYrYv
While corporate polluters keep winning, Americans keep paying the price. Extreme heat, hurricanes, winter storms, flash floods — the disasters hitting our communities today are bigger, more expensive, and more destructive than ever. And taxpayers are left to clean up the mess.
Fossil fuel companies routinely try to cheat the system. That’s why we’re tearing up their whole playbook with a legal case against zombie wells.
Today marks ten years since the historic #ParisAgreement. Where do we stand? 🧵
We’re using corporations’ own tools against them to protect the planet. This #GivingTuesday, you can be a part of this mission. For a limited time, all gifts will be 3x matched, meaning your generous gift will go three times as far to support ClientEarth’s legal battles. >> brnw.ch/21wY0ZX
Endangered vaquita porpoises that live in the Gulf of California can’t speak up for themselves. That’s where ClientEarth comes in. For a limited time, donations will be 3x matched, going 3x as far to support legal actions against corporations like those harming the Gulf's wildlife. brnw.ch/21wXRtP
This year, the Earth needed allies more than ever. That’s why we’re thankful for every supporter of ClientEarth USA. Whether you donated, signed petitions or shared our messages, you helped hold corporations accountable for a livable planet. 💚
Yesterday, the Trump administration proposed changes that would devastate vulnerable wildlife protected by the Endangered Species Act. The reason? To unleash corporate polluters, allowing them to exploit protected wildlife habitats for short-term profits.
At ClientEarth USA, we are working together with partners and communities impacted by climate-harming industries to devise legal interventions that hold these companies accountable for fueling the climate crisis. Join us.
