It's time to change our course on energy. Please join with us as we call for a new direction towards more clean energy to solve our dependence on oil and other fossil fuels, and reduce skyrocketing energy costs and global warming.

Petition Text

Dear Member of Congress:

America is at an energy crossroads. To solve our dependence on oil and other fossil fuels, skyrocketing energy costs and global warming, we need a bold, new energy plan for America. I urge you to speak out in favor of:

• Establishing aggressive standards for energy efficiency and clean, renewable energy.

• Reducing total U.S. global warming pollution at least 20 percent by 2020 and 80 percent by 2050—the science-based reductions needed to protect future generations.

• Auctioning 100 percent of the pollution allowances, and using the revenue to invest in energy efficiency and renewable energy and to assist American consumers.
