Take a stand today against coal

Take a stand today against coal

The Issue

"In Washington DC today, thousands are gathering for the largest civil-disobedience on the climate crisis in history.  A diverse coaltion will march and protest at the Capitol Power Plant, a dirty symbol of the dirtiest business on Earth, the combustion of coal.


Now is a critical time to show that people everywhere are uniting behind a future free of coal--a future safe from the ravages of climate change.  Stand in solidarity with them by signing the following statement:


I share your vision of a coal-free future and a safe climate, not only in Washington DC--but all over the world. I stand in solidarity with the coalition of citizens working for a clean energy future for the entire planet." quoted from 350.org

Let them know you support them, even though you cannot be there by signing at:
http://action.350.org/o/1879/t/8474/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=630

There is also a spot here to add your own personal message of support that 350.org will try to relay to those that are there today as the civil disobedience unfolds.

Carolyn TurnerPetition StarterIf I am not part of the solution, I am part of the problem. It's just that simple. When I am old and my son questions me about whether or not I did my part to make his world a more sustainable place for all species to survive, I need to know that I will be able to reply, "Yes, and aside from waiting until my 30's to have you, this is what I did..." So, I educated myself, planted 150+ trees, put up bluebird boxes, started growing some of our own food, and started putting my money where my mouth is. More powerful sometimes than our voice, is the impact we make by how we spend our money. I buy organic, all natural, and as local as possible. I compost, recycle, voice my opinion to my elected officials, boycott, educate, and learn. I actively seek information and new ideas for small lifestyle changes that I can make to further reduce my family's negative impact a little more every month.
