PTF Exposes WildEarth Guardians

May 17, 2019

Power The Future has been exposing left-wing environmental groups who have been targeting the energy industry and its workers across the country. Last month, we called attention to the Center For Biological Diversity, a national group using the legal system to stifle energy development, and Cook Intletkeeper, a supposed Alaska-based eco-group that actually receives much of its money from out of state. In February we profiled the Sunrise Movement, the group of eco-activists pushing the Green New Deal.

Now, Power The Future is shining a light on WildEarth Guardians. WildEarth Guardians is an eco-activist group quickly gaining prominence on the left that uses lawsuits to get their way. Most recently, WildEarth Guardians gained national attention for a lawsuit it launched that resulted in a judge questioning oil and gas leases on 300,000 acres of public lands in Wyoming.

WildEarth Guardians claim they want to “protect and restore the wildlife, wild places, wild rivers, and health of the American West.” In reality, they would wreck the U.S. economy if they got their way.

They believe conventional energy is immoral and “un-American,” and they believe we should “keep it in the ground,” a disastrous policy that would lead to hundreds of thousands of job losses. They also receive taxpayer funding – meaning their dangerous agenda is in part funded by you.
