Show the Candidates the Many Faces of Climate Change
Target: U.S. Presidential Candidates
Sponsored by: 1Sky
Sponsored by: 1Sky
The debate is over -- the National Academy of Sciences and thousands of scientists agree that the planet is warming. Now it's time to make the effects of global warming real for the presidential candidates.
Is global warming putting you and your community at risk for floods or hurricanes? Is it making water more scarce? Sign the petition, and let the presidential candidates know!
After a decade of stalling, we need real leadership on climate change:
- Job creation in a clean energy economy.
- A moratorium on building new coal-fired power plants.
- The reduction of emissions levels in scale with what the science demands.
Tell the candidates what global warming means to your community and tell them to commit to be climate leaders in 2008 and beyond.

Overpopulation and pollution in LA is a serious problem. We need cleaner energy options. We need to act immediately.

In Western NC, climate change indirectly threatens many species because warmer temperatures weaken them, making them more vulnerable to pests and parasites. We are on the verge of losing massive numbers of hemlock trees because of wooly adelgid parasitism.

Overpopulation and urban development has created serious problems for habitat, the environment and will soon affect humans if nothing is done. There are so many species of animals that are seriously threatened or already exctinct and our water supply is drying up.
