Support Effective and Real Global Warming Action

Target: Your Member of Congress
Sponsored by: Environmental Defense
Enough time has passed, and we have not seen any big steps to stop global warming. 

We need to make 2007 the year for meaningful legislation on global warming.


Senators Lieberman and McCain have reintroduced their Climate Stewardship and Innovation Act and we expect up to six additional global warming bills to come within the month.

Take action to support tough global warming legislation that meets these four main goals:
1) A real limit on pollution without loopholes or “escape hatches”

2) A trading system that allows those who can most efficiently reduce pollution to sell reductions to others
 
3) A standard for biofuels to ensure that they do cut global warming pollution
 
4) Free market competition for next generation energy sources
 


With the new Congress, we have a new opportunity to pass important legislation.


Take action to support new global warming legislation by sending this email to your senators today!
deadline: 1-23-2008
goal: 50,000

2007 is a critical year for effective global warming action. I strongly urge you to support meaningful global warming legislation that meets these four criteria:

- Set a hard cap on global warming pollution and a concrete timetable for reduction;

- Ensure all forms of global warming pollution are covered;

- Set new standards for environmentally sound ethanol and other biofuels; and

- Foster free market competition for next generation energy sources.

By supporting a bill that achieves these goals, you will be taking the crucial steps necessary to fight global warming.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

The world has become more dangerous with the impact of Global Warming, however, I'd still like to keep it.

Nuclear on an assembly line basis is the only adequate option to replace coal.

We are on the verge of another mass extinction if nothing is done about the loss of habitat for hundreds of species of life on this planet. Global warming plays a role in habitat loss. You can help protect wildlife.
