Dear John,
Like many of you, I was glued to my tv last night watching the
presidential debate and I'll be right back there tonight hoping for even
more time spent on the climate crisis. These Democratic hopefuls can claim
climate change is an important issue to them, but we know that real
climate action still only happens because of public pressure from people
like you.
Just this Monday, we called on the Democratic candidates to sign a Day One
pledge to make the climate crisis a priority on their first day in
office^1. Tonight, 350 Action Fellows are hosting debate watch parties in
key states around the country, building massive networks of climate
activists to keep that pressure growing.
[ [link removed] ]Donate today to help 350 Action keep the pressure on the DNC, elected
officials, and our presidential candidates.
Last week, after months of pressuring the DNC to host a climate debate,
CNN finally stepped up where the DNC would not and announced Climate Forum
2020 — a town hall for leading Democratic candidates^2. This could not
have happened without the hard work of 350 Action supporters and our
partners over the last several months.
We know this pressure is working. Candidates have been releasing bolder
and stronger climate plans since we launched the 2020 Climate Test^3 — and
this is just the beginning. In the coming months, we’ll be registering
thousands of voters and rolling out 350 Action’s early climate champion
endorsements.
The thing is, we can’t do any of this without your support. [ [link removed] ]Will you
make a contribution to 350 Action today so we can continue demanding our
government take action now for climate justice?
The scale of action required to address the climate crisis is enormous,
and I have no doubt it’s going to be hard work for whoever sits in the
Oval Office next. It’s our job in the lead-up to the elections and beyond
to pressure politicians until they act, and build the political will for
bold climate action.
I know that with your help, we can win. [ [link removed] ]Will you give today?
Here’s hoping for more than one question on climate in the debates
tonight!
See y’all on twitter,
Jenny
