Hi there,

If you think Democracy Now!’s reporting is a critical line of defense against war, climate catastrophe and fascism, please make your donation of $10 or more right now. Today a generous donor will DOUBLE your donation, which means it’ll go twice as far to support our independent journalism. When Democracy Now! covers war or gun violence, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate emergency, our reporting isn’t sponsored by the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Democracy Now! is funded by you, and that’s why we’re counting on your donation to keep us going. Please give today. Every dollar makes a difference—in fact, gets doubled! Thank you so much.
-Amy Goodman

    The San Francisco Bay Guardian article is headlined “The Earth Wrecker: The company that won the contract to oversee the rebuilding of San Francisco’s water system has a disastrous record worldwide.”

    Investigative journalist Pratap Chaterjee writes in a longer piece “Managing military bombsites for nuclear testing in Nevada, planning pipelines for Saddam Hussein in Iraq, helping back off the top of a sacred mountain on the Pacific island of New Guinea to build the world’s largest gold mine, building toxic refineries for Chevron in Richmond that destroy the San Fransico Bay to constructing the Cape Canaveral launch pad for the Mars probe, no project is too big or too controversial for San Francisco’s biggest companies to profit from.”
