Dear NRDC Supporter,
The environmental movement lost a giant yesterday. Actor,
director, NRDC Trustee and environmental champion Robert Redford
passed away on September 15th at the age of 89.
Redford shined a bright light on the most important
environmental issues, from the dawn of the environmental movement
in the '70s to the biodiversity and climate crises of today. We
must continue to honor his vision in the difficult environmental
landscape we face today.

In 1974, fresh off a string of critically-acclaimed movies,
Robert Redford had been fighting the construction of a massive
coal-fired power plant in southern Utah — an area that would
someday become part of Grand Staircase-Escalante, one of the most
beautiful national monuments in America.
He asked NRDC for help because he knew about our legal
prowess — our unique ability to leverage the power of law to
defend nature, wild places, our environment and our health.
At that time, NRDC was not even five years old, just a
small, scrappy organization working to pass landmark
environmental laws like the Clean Water Act. Thus began a
partnership that would last five decades.
Redford's vision and advocacy has led to many landmark
environmental fights and victories:
* In the late '70s, Redford fought for passage of the Alaska
National Interest Lands Conservation Act, which ultimately led to
the establishment of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, one of
the most revered protected lands on earth.
* In the '80s, he helped sound the alarm about climate change,
raising public awareness and paving the way for the first major
international climate summits.
* In the '90s, he led the fight against Newt Gingrich's "Contract
with America," a far-reaching assault on our environmental
protections and treasured public lands.
* In 2010, Redford helped launch NRDC's Stop the Pebble Mine
campaign, which would go on to drive four multinational mining
giants from the project in Alaska.
* In 2015, he travelled to Paris to help rally the international
community behind bold climate action and the Paris Climate
Treaty.
* In 2017, he fought against the Trump administration's plan to
approve the 2,100–acre Alton Coal Mine near Bryce Canyon National
Park.
* And in 2022, he spurred public support for legislation that
would become the Inflation Reduction Act, the most sweeping U.S.
climate action ever.
Redford recognized early on that to win fights like these,
NRDC needed to pair its unmatched legal prowess with
membership-driven advocacy impact. And today, NRDC leverages the
collective power of over 3 million Members and supporters eager
to make a difference.
We've prepared a short video ( [link removed] ) honoring Redford and the incredible difference he made
throughout his lifetime. And you can learn more about his legacy
and partnership with NRDC in a special tribute edition of NRDC's
Nature's Voice newsletter ( [link removed] ). These
were produced to honor Robert Redford before his passing.
I hope you'll join me in remembering Robert Redford for the
immeasurable impact he's made on NRDC, on the modern
environmental movement, and on the planet we all call home.
Sincerely,
Manish Bapna
President, NRDC
