A Gift for Mother Earth on Earth Day

An initiative from Earth Day Network that everyone should actively participate! Please join and MAKE THAT CALL on April 22! April 23 for Philippine residents and ASEAN countries.

Global warming is our most urgent environmental problem: it’s now or never to take action. Congress is weighing legislation that is woefully inadequate and will destroy our middle class, and falls far short of what is needed.

For Earth Day 2008, join Earth Day Network, which is spearheading one of the largest Earth Day campaigns in US history, with its Call for Climate. Be one of nearly a million people who will phone Capitol Hill on Earth Day to call for immediate and equitable national action on global warming. Put this number in your phone now!

Ask for your representative. Tell them the current global warming proposals in Congress are inadequate. Tell them you want:

• A moratorium on new coal-burning plants,
• Renewable energy,
• Carbon-neutral buildings,
• Protection for the poor and middle class in the new green economy.

Tell at least five friends about this campaign PLEASE! and have them enter the number into their phones now. Make sure they call on Earth Day, April 22nd.

Take action and sign Earth Day Network’s Sky Petition.

Call for Climate is especially important this election year. Our elected leaders need to hear that climate change demands swift and strong action. The time for waiting and inadequate solutions is over.

This Earth Day, it’s time to change the forecast for global warming. Climate change must rise to the top of the national agenda this election year. On April 22th, Americans will be hearing our global warming message and we will be mobilizing support with our Call for Climate.

Earth is a wonderful place we all live, a simple call can preserve our planet.
