Tony Fadell and HP’s Meg Whitman are matching donations to the Environmental Defense Fund

Nest co-founders Tony Fadell and Matt Rogers — and others including HP CEO Meg Whitman — are matching donations to the Environmental Defense Fund at ratios of up to 5 to 1 until Monday morning.

The EDF has set a goal of raising $1.25 million by 9 am ET Monday, a response to President Trump’s decision last week to pull the United States out of the Paris climate agreement. As of 5:30 pm ET Saturday, $588,500 had been donated.

The matching started this morning when Fadell, who left his role as CEO of Nest a year ago, said he would match donations if donors sent him their donation receipt.

"This thing has really snowballed," said EDF head of communications Eric Pooley.

Fadell, Rogers and Whitman are not the only folks displeased with Trump’s decision to bail on the Paris Accord. A number of other tech CEOs, including Tesla’s Elon Musk, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, and Apple’s Tim Cook voiced their displeasure earlier this week.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?

Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple reasons that we can't rely only on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on.

First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.

Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. We can’t do that if we have a paywall.

That’s why we also turn to you, our readers, to help us keep Vox free. If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today?
