John -

Brazil is auctioning off parts of the Amazon to fossil fuel companies.^1

If these sales go through, it would cause devastation: drilling in this
area would increase Brazil's oil production by an estimated 10 billion
barrels,^2 disturb one of the world's most biodiverse regions, and
severely impact the lives and livelihoods of Indigenous Peoples.

It's honestly mind-boggling.

But while it is upsetting, it is also exactly why we've created and grown
this incredible global movement for climate justice — so we have the power
to fight back, and demand that countries around the world do better.

I'll explain more about our plans to end the era of fossil fuels in a
moment, but first, I want to give you and every member of our movement the
chance to do everything you can to stand up to the corruption and greed of
the fossil fuel industry:

single most effective action you can take right now to help us stop the
reckless destruction of the Amazon and our climate is to chip
in. Your contribution
will support our activists and organizers on the ground in Latin America
and all our work to maintain a livable climate.

In November, Brazil will be hosting this year's most important global
climate conference, COP30. Unlike recent COPs hosted by petrostates and
authoritarian regimes, this summit takes place in one of the world's
largest democracies, with a powerful history of grassroots movements —
making it a unique opportunity for climate action.

And at 350.org, here's how we're stepping up:

* We're targeting Brazilian ministers to stop auctioning off the Amazon
for fossil fuel expansion;
* We trained 200+ climate organizers across 70+ countries at Renew Our
Power last April;
* We launched Energia dos Povos — a campaign strengthening clean energy
projects and resistance efforts in the Amazon;
* We're pressuring the COP30 president to deliver a fast, fair fossil
fuel phase-out that centers Indigenous Peoples and Traditional
Communities;
* And so much more.

But there's still much to do if we're going to take down the fossil fuel
industry once and for all. And the truth is that, unlike Big Oil, we do
not have unlimited finances or entire governments in our pockets.

What we do have, however, is campaigners on the ground ready to devise the
most strategic tactics to replace fossil fuels with community-owned
renewable energy — in Brazil, and around the world. We have an entire
global organization's worth of staff ready to spread, amplify and maximize
those campaign tactics. And we have an incredible movement of people like
you, John, ready to jump in
and support us.

In moments like these, when the future of the climate and frontline
communities is at risk, we mobilize. We organize. And we win. Are you with
us?

[ [link removed] ]Will
you make a
contribution today to support our work to demand that Brazil leads on
climate, and take down the fossil fuel industry?

Thank you for being by our side in this fight for climate justice.

In solidarity,
