Hey John, it's Aru with Sunrise.

Earth Day began as a generation flooded the streets demanding that the government finally stand up to powerful corporations and tell them they could not poison the future for profit. And they won.

Today, that progress is under full attack as Donald Trump, backed by fossil fuel billionaires, is waging a full-scale assault on the very life-saving protections that Earth Day was created to demand. His blatant corruption is putting millions of lives at risk.

This Earth Day, we aren’t just commemorating a moment in history; we’re continuing the fight. Like in 1970, when millions of people took to the streets, we are building a movement to meet the scale of the crisis.

We will not cooperate with the destruction of our earth. Since Trump’s inauguration, we have trained over 5,000 young people to organize our communities, take bold action, and lead the fight for a Green New Deal.

Donald Trump can only carry out his agenda if people, agencies, and workers go along with it. So instead, we will disrupt business as usual. We will resist at every level: in the streets, in our schools, and in the halls of power.

They are going to use every lever of government they have to attack us, but if there’s one thing the first Earth Day taught us, it’s this: corporations and their bought-out politicians are no match for movements, when we get organized.

There’s no time to waste. Our movement is powered by people like you. Make a donation of $20 to celebrate Earth Day 2025, and be a part of the movement that Donald Trump could never stop.
