- Host a Sneak Peak "From the Ashes" film screening Gather with a group, grab some popcorn, and settle in for a Beyond Coal film screening. "From the Ashes," a documentary film produced by Radical Media and Bloomberg Philanthropies, addresses the legacy of the coal industry and its future under the Trump administration.

- Deliver a postcard to your member of Congress Our climate protections are under attack by a polluter-controlled Congress. But no amount of money can change the fact that Americans want action on climate. If we work together, we can make these rollbacks so unpopular they won't stand a chance -- even in this polluter-friendly Congress. Start by delivering a climate action postcard to your member of Congress!
- Take action to stop the Keystone XL Pipeline The Trump administration approved the presidential permit for the Keystone XL pipeline and reversed the decision of the Obama administration. The good news is this fight is far from over and we can win. TransCanada must still get approval to route the pipeline through Nebraska and the Nebraska Public Service Commission (PSC) is taking public comments now. Submit your comment today.
