We need to rally a massive grassroots response NOW to ensure these critical protections aren't blocked by the fossil fuel industry’s allies in Congress.

But while this is a crucial step forward, it falls short of the total ban we need on these dangerous, dirty methane gas exports – and we have a critical window open right now to make our voices heard. Our leaders are listening: Tell them we must permanently stop all LNG exports before they do even more damage to our climate and health. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=587867d5d0a2117ef9872b 7dd982c9a92446d979ef3c89f6eb8684e76072f2523645080b55e8918e882d43caa591ff3d24912c5e1e8edee05ff884d8d85f4219> Support Our Work <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=587867d5d0a2117ee5c41ca2c7942af9a5a98de3248fd8d9793d8fb70a290c9be08e9582e348dfabd7a6098b6bf4d99a599a4e182826e53f7a5a568b618c0649> Photo from our Earth Day Store Your impact DOUBLES for the Planet This Earth Month <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=587867d5d0a2117e873cf814b45eaca4db3f518e11f55d65bb6bdf2d2d90821494e09c5ae33e2eebcae997283bae081baef49661daa 23e38acf4405d6a255df6> The Sierra Club works every day to defend vulnerable wildlife like gray wolves, shut down coal plants that poison our air, accelerate the transition to clean energy, and much more.
