The NRDC is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization that "works to safeguard the air we breathe, the water we drink and the places we treasure."NRDC is working towards reducing the use of fossil fuels, which is polluting our air and causing global warming. This organization wants to decrease "our dependence on these dirty sources by expanding clean energy across cities, states and nations." The NRDC helps create clean energy solutions and fight "oil and gas projects that would pump out even more pollution."
The organization "pressed the U.S. government to adopt the first ever national limits on carbon pollution from power plants." The NRDC works towards creating policies that make cars and buildings more efficient and help communities fight "fossil-fuel extraction operations in their backyards." The NRDC has also worked with other countries to produce a clean energy future.
The NRDC is working hard to protect the oceans from pollution. They have helped "implement laws that allow overfished species to rebound and fight to protect coastal communities from offshore drilling."
The NRDC helped win the Clean Water Act in the 1970s and has continued to "fight for a clean, safe and sufficient water supply."
The organization also protects wildlife and unspoiled lands from "industrial development, commercial exploitation, pollution and climate change. They work with farmers, energy companies and the government to "promote solutions that help wild predators coexist with livestock and people." The NRDC has helped protect animals such as polar bears, elephants, rhinos and many others.
