Support Incentives for Clean Energy Jobs

Target: US Congress
Sponsored by: Alliance for Climate Protection - We Can Solve It
By raising your voice on the issue of clean energy, you're in some very good company. A great many Unlikely Alliances have formed to make the call for clean power:

- The United Steelworkers, as part of the Blue-Green Alliance, see the great jobs potential in the renewable energy sector, and they want safe and affordable energy sources for our manufacturing sector.

- Green For All brings renewable energy jobs right to the heart of America's inner cities. They are unifying diverse urban communities around a clean energy future.

- The 25 x '25 Alliance, based largely in America's Farm Belt, is pushing the U.S. to derive 25 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2025. It's an ambitious, but attainable, goal - so long as Congress acts.

Urge your member of congress to support tax incentives for renewable energy!
deadline: Ongoing...
goal: 20,000

Dear Members of Congress:

I urge you to support tax incentives for renewable energy. These incentives help create jobs and lower greenhouse gases. They are the kind of policies that will help solve the climate crisis.

Wind and solar enegy are proven technologies that will help meet growing demand for electricity right where it's needed the most, at the point of use. They offset the need for climate changing coal and gas fired power plants. I would like to get a job in the alternetive energy industry and tax incentives for investors are crucial to expanding this wonderful technology.

I hope you will be the one to see that not only is this better for the environment, it will also be better for the economy in quite a short span of time! Do what's right, not what's easy.

As gas prices are going higher every day and our resources are depleting, we need to come up with new ideas that will help control the greenhouse effect that we are in.

Renewable energy is one of most exciting, growing, interesting, profitable, applicable and essential industries there is. It branches out into countless sub-sectors and it makes you feel good. The postions in the engineering and science and manufacturing are in huge demand. We need more people with expertise in renewable energy lots of industry want to be 'green' but they need employees and for that we need incentives. please support incentives it will help the provide jobs.

Humanity is at a crossroads on climate change. We know exactly how to mitigate the worst effects that're coming, and exactly how to prevent worse effects that will come if we continue in our unsustainable path. Also, climate change disproportionately punishes the most vulnerable in our society. I don't accept that poor people and people of color must breathe dirty and smelly air from landfills and incinerators and drink water polluted with leachate and fecal coliform. Further, we're in a recession that's leaving many jobless. America needs labor-intensive industries that don't make us sick. Invest in green jobs: to protect my generation and those to come, to do justice for our society's disenfranchised people, and to work against the recession.
