Vladimir,
The West Coast
is on fire again. Over three million acres of land have
already burned to the ground from the California-Mexico border
all the way up to Washington state. Sixteen people and
countless animals have died as a result of the blazes,
including a 1-year-old baby. Whole towns have been destroyed.
And yet, the calamity is still far from over. The only
thing we know for certain so far is the culprit: climate
change. Record-hot summers have left the land
bone-dry, providing perfect kindling for wildfires, and this
is all due to human behavior. If we're going to survive as a species, we need
a Green New Deal — now.
There's no way that we as
individuals can turn this tide just by changing our lightbulbs
and buying hybrid cars. What we need is immediate
governmental action on a massive scale to combat this
level of impending doom. A Green New would transition our
society away from deadly fossil fuels and towards renewable
energy, all while creating sustainable jobs for years to come.
We honestly cannot afford to wait a second longer. Sign the petition if you want the United States
to adopt a Green New Deal in order to save our economy, our
environment, our health, and our world.
Thank you for all that you do,
|

P.S. As climate
change worsens, so will firefires, pandemics, heart and
respiratory diseases, and more. Our government must act now.

Deal! |
