You Have The Power To Protect Our Planet

We’ve secured an Earth Month Challenge Match, which means every dollar donated in April, up to $25,000, will be matched 1:1 – That’s 2X the power to protect our planet!
Every dollar counts whether it’s a one-time or monthly recurring donation, 100% of your donation goes toward caring for our environment. Give now through April 30 and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Become a Monthly Sustainer by April 30 and your first three months will be matched!

Support Legislation to Ban Gas-Powered Leaf Blowers
CALL TO ACTION: let legislators know that you support bills — HB881 and SB687 which would give localities in dense urban and suburban areas the ability to ban or regulate the use of gas-powered leaf blowers.
Moving Forward with a Gas-Powered Leaf Blower Ban
Arlington County is considering prohibiting the use of gas-powered leaf blowers with a possible phase-out period of up to three years. Your feedback will help shape how the County moves forward. Share your thoughts in a questionnaire by October 29.
