Climate First!, Inc. is holding an online 24 hour fundraiser on Earth Day, Wednesday, April 22, 2026. Please donate to the nonprofit as it  continues its work to help save the climate.  

With the Trump administration continuing to dismantle anything related to climate protection, while doing everything it can do to increase the use of climate-wrecking fossil fuels in the U.S. and beyond, Climate First! has been pushing back on the President's authoritarian agenda and actions, while continuing its climate-protection work.

During the latest nationwide No Kings! protest on March 28, 2026, Climate First! attended the Memorial Bridge March to DC which was organized by Third Act DMV, and more than 20 partners. There were thousands of protesters that joined the march going from Arlington, VA, over the Potomac River via the Memorial Bridge to well inside the National Mall in Washington, DC. This event was just one of over 3,300 No Kings! rallies across all 50 states (and in at least 15 countries) in which over 8 million people participated on that day.

In addition to its anti-authoritarian work, Climate First! is also involved in more traditional climate work, such as the Costco-Clean Up Your Credit Card campaign. In trying to get Costco to dump its current credit card provider--Citibank, one of the biggest climate-polluting banks on earth--we believe that this campaign has a real chance of success. Why? The leaders of the Costco campaign have found there are other credit card-providing financial institutions that don't invest massive amounts of monies in fossil fuels, and can handle Costco's huge business. See the "Better Options" report here. And if you are a customer or "potential" customer of Costco, you can help us win the campaign by signing this petition. In addition, you can--easily and quickly--email executives of other retail companies that would likely want to clean up their credit card.

To continue this important work, Climate First! needs your financial help to cover expenses involving communication, travel, as well as office equipment and rent.
