Statement from Patagonia CEO Ryan Gellert on U.S. Supreme Court Decision EPA v. West Virginia

Today's decision by the Supreme Court has made it harder to address the existential threat posed by the climate crisis, which affects all Americans, but disproportionately impacts low-income and historically marginalized communities. It's clear from our early reading of today's opinion that the Court has restricted the executive branch's ability to protect those who are most affected by climate change and to support communities on the front lines of climate activism. Despite the misguided opinions of this Court, we're more determined than ever to save our home planet. This is our purpose.

Ryan Gellert, CEO, Patagonia
