Support Strong Climate Action
- by: WWF
On June 1, 2017, President Donald Trump announced that he would withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement. This decision creates grave risks for the American people and the planet.
Fortunately, states, cities, businesses, investors, colleges, universities, and others are working together to take up the mantle of climate leadership in the United States. They account for the majority of the US economy and US emissions—and they are working together to achieve the clean energy vision of the Paris Agreement.
They are still in, and we are, too. Join us in showing your support for strong climate action by signing this pledge.
We, the undersigned people of the United States, will continue to support climate action to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.
I commit to:
1. Reduce my own carbon emissions and do what I can through everyday actions such as taking public transportation or carpooling, making my home more energy efficient, switching my home electricity to renewable sources, and limiting food waste.
2. Support U.S. states, cities, businesses, investors, universities, and other entities taking strong climate action and showing the world that the United States is still working to fulfill the Paris Agreement - and call on others to join them.
3. Urge President Trump to keep the United States in the Paris Agreement and protect federal safeguards for our health and environment from regulatory rollbacks and budget cuts.
4. Call on Congress to hold polluters accountable and oppose any efforts to weaken the environmental protections and climate policies that protect our health and well-being.
The people of the United States remain dedicated to creating a just, clean energy future. Together, we will protect the prosperity, security, and health and welfare of our country and the planet.
