Earthjustice, founded in 1971 as the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund, pledged renewed legal resistance as President Donald Trump returned to office in 2025, emphasizing its record of courtroom victories defending clean air, water, and climate protections. The organization also condemned the Mendoza Supreme Court in Argentina for rejecting civil society participation in a case concerning fracking in the Vaca Muerta formation, arguing that indigenous Mapuche groups and international environmental advocates were denied meaningful input while fossil fuel interests were granted access.
