Send a message to political leaders, and those running for re-election in November, that Americans want energy leadership from their government. We have the technological know-how to turn the tide on global warming and the energy crisis. We as citizens must demand that elected officials act now to develop policies to stop global warming before our environment is irreparably harmed.
Sensible solutions to global warming and our energy problems exist - we can own our energy future and reinvigorate our economy. Sign the petition and demand that politicians and candidates for office make global warming and clean energy a priority in the 2006 elections.
We signed the “Demand Global Warming Leadership Now!” petition!

Failure to vigorously address global warming will compromise our children's and their children's well being while extending our dependence on unfriendly oil regimes and outdated technology. Let us not cede leadership and economic benefits of clean technologies to others, finance those who mean us ill, and leave an impoverished world to our children.

Let's do something now while we have some choices about how to transition. We need to stop pretending that we can carry on our present course. The planet isn't dying, but we might (and take lots of species with us on our way out).

Until global warming is reversed, the ongoing destruction of our planet renders Iraq, the economy, terrorism, and all the other distractionary election issues irrelevant. Our planet is dying, and without it nothing else can survive--no GNP, no wars, no peace, no beings. It's time for our elected officials to get priorities and logic straight, and make global warming the MAIN election issue and its elimination their main goal.

As a geologist, I believe that burning fossil fuel is placing billions of tons of geological carbon into our current atmosphere. That action combined with clearcutting trees is a receipe for future disaster. We need to think smarter and act wiser.

Watch where you spend your dollars today that is when you will get your way. You are being held hostage by corporate greed, the status staying the same is the game. Ralph Nader is the name if you wish to change this insane game that is being played. What do we have to lose. These presidentual canidates spend millions to obtain a job that only pays a few hundred thousand why do you think that is so? And where does this money come from and don't you think they want a pay back and a lot of interest in THEIR projects?

Short term goals like easing environmental regulation on the energy sector for economic reasons could mean the end of human existance on earth. Congress and the Administration can't seem to look beyond the end of their own (for profit) nose.

I am always taken by surprise by apparent disdain for science and any findings that suggest we have made mistakes or been insensitive to the results of our behaviour.
One aspect of adulthood is recognizing our errors and making changes accordingly.

Our leaders, who we, the American people, voted into government to protect us, must take steps to stop global warming to protect our health, our ecomony, and the environment. Please, be politically aggressive and creative to take the necessary steps to stop global warming along with all its man-made disasters for current and future generations!
