Make an Impact with your PFD

Rather than participating in Pick.Click.Give., which charges a 7% coordination fee, we’re asking you to donate directly from your PFD this year. In the past, that fee has redirected over $14,000 away from our efforts to protect Cook Inlet | Tikahtnu.

Make an Impact with your PFD

— Loren Barrett

If you’ve already applied for your 2024 Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD), you might have noticed that Cook Inletkeeper is missing from the list of Pick.Click.Give. (PCG) organizations this year. We’re doing things a bit differently for 2024 to ensure your donations have the greatest possible impact.

Rather than participating in PCG, which charges a 7% coordination fee, we’re asking you to donate directly from your PFD this year. In the past, that fee has redirected over $14,000 away from our efforts to protect Cook Inlet | Tikahtnu. By donating directly, every cent of your contribution will support the vital work you care about.

We deeply appreciate all those who have given through PCG in previous years. It’s been an excellent way to connect with new supporters and make giving easy. However, this change means that your donations will now go even further in supporting the programs and initiatives you value.

To make it easy to remember, we’ll send out a reminder when the PFD direct deposit is set to arrive- though there is no reason to delay, you can always donate today by clicking the button below and know you’ve done your part to support the further protection of Cook Inlet.

With your continued support, we can keep up our vital work—whether it’s opposing the Pebble and Donlin Mine projects, protecting Critical Habitat Areas, gathering crucial data on salmon habitats, or fostering sustainable local food systems. We stand by the belief that policies protecting our home should be driven by science, data, and humanity.

Thank you for standing with us in this shared mission. We can achieve so much more together.

For 2024, you can donate directly at inletkeeper.org/donate or by mail at 3734 Ben Walters Ln., Homer, AK 99603.

A heartfelt thanks from all of us—staff, volunteers, supporters, and everyone who values the clean water and healthy habitats of Cook Inlet.

The “Big, Beautiful Cook Inlet” (BBC1): March Lease Sales Move Forward without New Environmental Reviews

by | Feb 18, 2026 | , , ,

Instead of conducting updated environmental analysis, on the BBC1 lease sale the administration indicated it would rely on reviews completed in 2017 during the first Trump administration. Inletkeeper has joined with community and environmental groups to formally notify Interior Secretary Doug Burgum of their intent to sue if the sale proceeds without required consultation under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Relying on outdated reports disregards nearly a decade worth of analysis on the accelerating impacts of climate change, increased industrial activity, and updated science on species and habitat conditions.

We can’t risk turning climate pollution into water pollution

by | Jan 19, 2026 | ,

Carbon capture has a host of uncertainties upstream of the injection well. But let’s set aside for now the unsolved technological question of how CO2 can be affordably captured at any significant scale. Likewise the economic and political questions of how to price and/or police carbon to make polluters capture it. What concerns do we have about pumping CO2 underground, and the vigilance needed to be sure it doesn’t harm the people and ecosystems above?
