Representatives Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Ed Markey (D-MA) have introduced draft global warming legislation that would cap America's global warming pollution, liberate us from imported oil, and put millions of Americans to work unleashing our clean energy future.
It will become the legislative vehicle in the House for climate action this year. This is the opportunity we've long been waiting for. Scientists warn that there is no time to waste -- that if we don't act now, we risk catastrophic threats from run-away global warming.
We must seize this opportunity to pass the strongest possible bill. Please send an email to your Representative to support global warming action in 2009.
We took action on “Help Pass a Strong Global Warming Bill”!

It is obvious from the oppressive heat this summer (and we're barely a week into it) that we have adversely effected the ozone layer. This is not mentioning the additional effect of overforestization. We must aggresively work to reverse, and prevent further, damage from global warming.

This is a no brainer. Do we need to wait until there's water lapping at our doorstep?

Global warming is a threat that affects all of us. Its consequences are dire for the entire human population. Please heed the warning of the scientific community in order to ensure a better future for all of us.

Some people don't belive in global warming some do. Humans are part of the earth just as much as another animal is and I would think most would like to live in a world with less pollution. Unlike an a differnt animal we humans can do something about that.

We have waited too long already. This crisis has been with us for many years. Government and big business has allowed this disaster to get to this point. Our children need to have a future as well.
