I received an email the other day from the Humane Society which was originally from the League of Conservation Voters. The climate crisis affects humans, animals, plant life, our water, etc. Please reach out to your senators to urge them to pass legislation for clean energy NOW rather than later.
As you know, polar bears and other creatures are facing serious survival challenges.
Erratic weather conditions. Hurricanes. Melting ice caps. Habitats and ecosystems have been irreversibly and catastrophically altered — scattering vulnerable communities and pushing endangered species to the edge of extinction. Climate change is already having a devastating impact around the globe.
The Senate is about to resume the debate on clean energy and climate change legislation that could literally determine the fate of our planet and the potential for a clean energy economy.
Will you contact your Senators today and urge them to support clean energy and climate legislation?
In June, the members of the House showed they were ready to seriously address climate change – but it is far from a done deal. Our victory in the House has our opponents on the offensive, spending tens of millions to roadblock the Senate bill. We must not let dirty polluters get in the way of our clean energy future.
Click here to ask your Senators to vote YES for a clean energy economy and for the protection of endangered animals around the globe.
As you know, this is a critical moment in the fight to pass comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation in the Senate. Our margin of victory was extremely close in the House, and will come down to just a few votes in the Senate as well.
Corporate polluters are doing everything in their power to sabotage efforts to transition to a clean energy economy because they claim it threatens their bottom line. Last year, these polluters spent a record $154 million lobbying Congress. They’ve launched an unprecedented smear campaign to defeat comprehensive climate legislation and protect their profits.
This is why it is so critical that Senators hear from their constituents who support jump-starting a clean energy economy that cuts global warming pollution. Will you add your voice today?
Send a message right away to your Senators asking for their support of a comprehensive clean energy and climate bill.
