In his Inaugural Address, President Obama promised to “respond to the threat of climate change.” Now, it’s our job make sure that he does. The climate crisis is real, and we need to push our leaders to reduce the carbon pollution that causes it.
That’s why I hope you’ll join us in Washington, D.C. on Sunday, February 17 for the biggest climate rally in history. On President’s Day weekend, we’re calling on President Obama and all our leaders to take bold and decisive action on climate change.
We’ll be joining groups like the Sierra Club, the Hip Hop Caucus, 350.org, and tens of thousands of people like you. And we’ll tell President Obama that it’s time to move forward on climate.
In the words of actor and environmental activist Robert Redford: “This is the beginning. The beginning of a real battle, for America’s future. Real economic security is found in clean energy. That’s our future, not dirty energy that threatens us with ever worsening harm from climate change.”
Let’s call on President Obama to lead us toward that clean energy future. RSVP today and help us make history this February 17.

Now’s the time to act and reduce carbon and greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels, wind energy, solar, and efficiency are all critical to accomplishing this goal—they need more support!

It is time for the United States of America to take the lead and reduce carbon emissions and invest heavily in green technologies. Stop the madness and gradually remove our economy from war and oil and into green and sustainable economics. Yeah we are AMERICANS and that is what we do.

Dear President Obama,
The time has come to DO something. Mankind cannot continue to hope it will not be that bad. The warming planet will bring disastrous consequences. You are a very bright man who understands this. Please, the time has come to act. Thank you.

This will define your presidency. You will either be the President that saw the future and made changes, or the President that did nothing, kept the status quo, and caved in to big oil. The result being disaster for our beautiful planet and an inglorious place in history for you.

WE need to change the way we view our resources, they are limited, ppl are limited life is special and worth something. By teaching the American ppl that everything has a shelf life, that is not worth anything, the citizens here apply that principle to other aspects of life. And we end up throwing away, squandering, access to fresh water, fresh air, organic food that is 1000x better for us and the planet. WE need to be investing in our future if not for us in this life time our grandchildren’s. To feel the guilt that our consumer way of lifestyle killed any aspect of happiness/ health/ and a good life is huge, and not one I want to bare. Please take advantge of a multi dimensioal approach to climate change, Challenge amaericans to do better!

This is really much more important, than it looks.
The main cause of all these threats to environment is just one: overpopulation.
To be rated at +67% even today; frightening… but beyond any reasonable doubt.
+67 % or +2/3 !

The most efficient way to curb carbon pollution is to let the market do it. Put a consumer-friendly, steadily-rising, initially-small price on the carbon content of fossil fuels at their point of entry into the economy, return the funds to households, place a border tax on imports from countries that do not control carbon pollution so as to level the playing field, then the government can step out of the stampede towards the next industrial revolution. CARBON FEE AND DIVIDEND MAKES SENSE. The economists are in consensus! Imagine that!
Maribel Garcia-Exposito (Ms)

We can hope that our government does the right thing to help curb global warming but, we as individuals need to make the concerted effort to change to alternatives that are on the market. This needs to be a global effort not just a US effort. We all live on this planet not just a portion of it. Try thinking hydrogen fuel cells, electric cars and trucks, solar, wind generators, thermal heating and cooling. Start searching alternatives!

In reference to the 3 comments above: 1, extinctions of species have happened and are continuing at increasing pace. 2, Obama has a lot on his plate but very little besides words has materialized to “end” global warming. We have to do a lot of hard work to force him [and I believe he wants to be forced] to address the problems on a scale that can really make a change. And change on a global scale really needs U.S. leadership. 3. Peter Joseph is right about a carbon fee or tax and market forces and everything else has to be used to effect a real turn around. And I thank Dr. Joseph for his Email about the February 17th March on Washington. But why haven’t I heard more about it? Why are not Greenpeace, EDF, NRDC, World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy and every other conservation agency and NGO involved? The Dirty fuel makes Dirty weather marathon got no [or almost no] play in the printed or broadcast news. Nor have 350′s various demonstrations claiming to be the largest ever world wide demonstrations received much notice. I went on the March on Washington almost 50 years ago and I want to go on this one but I don’t want to make the effort to no effect. Why not a million? Or 10 Million? If it blocks up all the roads, jams DC to gridlock it will be harder to ignore. The conservation groups like the Democratic party in the last 4 and more elections have been altogether too wimpy. Jimmy Carter put solar panels on the White House. A start. Ronald Reagan took them off more than thirty years ago. Too much time wasted. Polite discourse and sweet reason has not worked. There are more than ten million of us that know it! Time and life are wasting. What are we going to make happen on the 17th of February?

We need to wake up and take out power back. It’s time for the majority of the American public to VOTE. We do not support guns, we do not support polluters and we do not support taking women’s rights to choose away. Yet many politician will NOT do what the majority want as they are beholding to the special interests and spend 80% of there day trying to raise money from them. Stop this craziness and get money out of politics. 1st deal with Climate change honestly and stop the spin then we have a chance of survival. 2nd Take all guns that fire more then 5 rounds at a time off the market, 3rd allow women the right to make there own health decisions. All this will fall into place when we get money out of politics. LGBT right are the new civil right issue and thank god its moving in the right direction. Lets let that be an example of what can be accomplished.
