Tell Presidential Candidates: Iowans Demand 50% Clean Energy by 2030!
Climate change is the defining issue of our time, and Iowa is a crucial part of the solution. Wind energy provides more electricity in Iowa than in any other state. And biofuels already support thousands of good jobs for Iowans.
But politicians and special interests have stacked the deck in favor of powerful fossil fuel companies. These big polluters spend millions on campaign contributions and lobbying fees to protect their bottomline.
Iowans have the unique opportunity to make these politicians listen and create a smarter and more sustainable energy future. With the 2016 election upon us, the time is now to ensure that whomever is elected has a climate change plan for the future.
Will you stand with your neighbors in Iowa to urge the 2016 presidential candidates to take the #50by30 pledge and lay out a realistic plan to ensure that 50 percent of America's energy needs are met using clean energy by 2030?
Iowa is a leader in clean energy, but we need a President who will lead with us.
With great power comes great responsibility. As an Iowan, sign the petition today urging Presidential candidates to commit to #50by30.
Dear Presidential Candidates,
As an Iowan, I'm writing to demand that you publicly commit to a plan that will move America to 50 percent clean energy by 2030 and lay out a roadmap to realistically achieve these goals.
Climate change is the defining issue of our time. People across the globe are facing the devastating impacts of climate change — rising seas, extreme temperatures, droughts, and wildfires to name just a few.
Iowa is a leader in clean energy, but we can't lead alone. That's why I'm demanding that you stand with us — and all Americans — and commit to a plan to move America to 50% clean energy by 2030.
