Dear MoveOn member,
Last month, the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a landmark report showing that the Earth is likely to pass a critical threshold for global warming within the next decade—much faster than previously predicted.1
This new report is the most dire warning yet for the future of our planet, but the scientists noted that there is a clear path forward to preventing it: Governments across the world must work together to lower greenhouse gas emissions by 50% over the next decade.2
We've known for years that this was what was needed to protect our planet and the lives of future generations—and now it is time for our government to act. No more half-measures, no more platitudes, only urgent, lifesaving action.
To give you the opportunity to wear your values and spread this critically important message, MoveOn is thrilled to announce our 2023 Earth Day Limited-Edition merch collection! Take a look below and get yours now, while supplies last!
"Trash Big Oil, Not Our Futures" Recycled Canvas Tote Bag
The uncontrolled greed of oil companies has long been a roadblock to tackling climate change, and as we enter this critical period of action, we must break our dependency on Big Oil and break their stranglehold on our politics.
"Destroy the Patriarchy, Not the Planet" Organic Cotton T-Shirt
When we fight for environmental justice, we are also fighting against racism, misogyny, bigotry, and patriarchy—all of which uphold the white supremacist system that refuses to tackle the climate emergency.
"Renewable energy? I'm a big fan!" Embroidered Ball Cap
The move to green energy is no longer theoretical; it is the only path forward to protect our planet and our futures.
"Literally Trash" Recycled Glassware
Each year, landfills are filled with items that could be recycled, which is where Refresh Glass comes in! They have rescued more than 1 million glass bottles from landfills and turned them into functional drinkware!
Check out the whole Earth Day collection here!
Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn's work? We know how to end the epidemic of gun violence in America, but the NRA and gun manufacturers use their control over the GOP to stop every effort to ban assault weapons and pass other commonsense gun control laws. We’re organizing to end the gun industry's stranglehold on policymakers.
Will you join us in the fight to protect our loved ones from gun violence?
