Friends -
Every day and in every part of the world, we are seeing the devastating effect climate change is having on our planet.
The truth is that if we are going to leave behind a planet that is healthy and habitable for our children and our grandchildren, we must ask ourselves a series of very fundamental questions:
What kind of future can we expect?
Can we expect a future of widespread heat waves and wildfires, where temperature records are repeatedly broken month after month, year after year? Or will we fight back?
Can we expect a future where rising sea levels, devastating floods, droughts, and extreme weather disturbances are accepted as commonplace? Or will we have the guts to take on the fossil fuel industry and demand that enough is enough?
How do we transform our energy systems towards efficient and renewable forms of power?
How do we create a sense of urgency and bring the international community together to combat climate change?
When it comes to answering these questions and addressing the existential threat of the climate crisis, I have often heard that bold action to avert its effects is 'too expensive', or 'too radical'.
But the fact is that for the sake of future generations, for the sake of the planet, we cannot give in to despair. We have got to stand up and fight back.
That's why this Wednesday, July 12 at 8:00 p.m. ET, I'll be hosting a panel discussion with some of the leading voices in our movement's fight against the climate crisis on where we go from here, and I'm hoping that you will join me in that conversation.
Here are all the details. Can you RSVP today to say you'll tune in and join us for this important event?

We hope you'll stay, because emails are such an important part of how we organize and how we raise money. In fact, there is no single greater source for our campaign's fundraising than emails like this one. And that's important, because no one person, not even Bernie Sanders, can take on the billionaire class alone.
