Climate change’s threats to human health and life are growing. Will you join our latest effort to roll back climate change?

Time to face up to climate change

October 31, 2012

A mammoth storm wallops the nation.  Sea surge floods the coast.  Millions are left without power.  Transportation systems stop.  The economic cost is in the trillions; the death toll, counting the US and the Caribbean, is over 120.

Welcome to Climate Change.

It’s time for the American people to tell our elected officials to wake up.  Climate change is real, it’s dangerous, and it’s now.

Take Action!

Write President Obama and your Members of Congress, telling them we need to invest in clean, safe, carbon-free fuels like solar, wind and geothermal.

Our future depends on it.
