Keeping Up with 350NH: December Newsletter

I can’t believe it’s already December! This year, we got Senator Maggie Hassan to refuse meetings with Exxon lobbyists, held dozens of actions, trained hundreds of volunteers, and brought people from across New England to Bow to take direct action to shut down the coal plant. I want to thank each and every one of you who volunteered your time, came to events, took direct action at the coal plant, sent letters to your representatives, and donated this year. We have ambitious plans for 2022 and thanks to your support we can keep dreaming big. I’m more motivated than ever to keep up this fight for climate justice, and am eager to connect with you in the coming year. 

– Rebecca (she/her/hers), Communications Director

In Case You Missed It

No Coal No Gas took a trip to Connecticut to visit the private equity firms that own the Merrimack Generating Station coal plant. We went directly to the offices of Atlas Holdings and Castleton Commodities to demand they shut down the coal plant – but they refused to meet with us. We left Atlas a pile of coal and rallied outside of Castleton’s offices, singing and chanting.
We’re hiring! 350NH is hiring for a Co-Executive Director to lead our team on a mix of fundraising, organizational management and strategy. Click here to learn more about the position and to apply by December 10th. Please share this opportunity! Come work with us in the fight for climate justice!
Thanks to your support, our Giving Tuesday campaign was a huge success! We set a goal to raise $60,000 by the end of the year, and we’re already half way there! We have big plans to elect progressive climate champions, increase NH’s renewable energy use, and shut down the coal plant in 2022 and we need your support to win our campaigns.
