Take Action: Diles a tus senadores que fortalezcan un proyecto de ley historico contra el calentamiento global

Diles a tus senadores que fortalezcan un proyecto de ley historico contra el calentamiento global

Los científicos están de acuerdo que si no actuamos pronto para reducir la contaminación del calentamiento global, las temperaturas promedio seguirán subiendo causando más olas de calor, más contaminación del aire, más sequías e incendios forestales, más lluvias torrenciales e inundaciones, el nivel de los mares seguirá subiendo, se seguirá descongelando la tundra y se aumentará aún más la pérdida del hábitat de la fauna. Pide a tus senadores que patrocinen y fortalezcan un proyecto de ley que obligue a cortar las emisiones que causan el calentamiento global.

Your Senators

Dear [Decision Maker],

(Edit Letter Below)

I urge you to co-sponsor and strengthen the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act (S. 2191) when it moves to the Senate floor. The bill would set real, long-term reductions in global warming pollution and is the first bipartisan climate legislation in history to be voted out of committee. If you have already co-sponsored S. 2191, or voted for it in committee, thank you for your leadership on this critical issue.

The Nobel prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has made it clear that we must take urgent action to curb global warming pollution in order to avoid catastrophic consequences. Time is running out for effective action on global warming, and we must get started immediately. The longer we delay, the greater the impacts and risks, and the more dramatically we will have to cut emissions in future years to achieve the same results.

I urge you to support strengthening S. 2191 in two main ways:
1. Ensure that the targeted emissions reductions keep pace with scientific recommendations.
2. Reduce the total amount of emission allowances given to polluters for free.

I also urge you to oppose any weakening amendments that would compromise the integrity of the emissions cap or slow the overall emissions reduction timeline. For instance, a so-called "safety valve" would allow polluters to purchase an unlimited number of additional emission allowances, moving America off track.

S. 2191 provides a sensible framework for engaging the full Senate and moves the process of enacting mandatory federal climate legislation forward. I hope that you will support these practical policies to create a cleaner America and to confront the greatest environmental threat of our time: global warming.

Sincerely,

[Your name]
