John, we have some great news to share:
Over the weekend, President Biden and G20 leaders committed to tripling renewable energy capacity globally by 2030 to limit the rise of global temperatures.1
This is a direct result of what happens when our movement comes together, John. Just last week, we called on Biden to increase renewable energy capacity at the G20 summit. And that's exactly what he did. We are proving that people's power works. But we cannot stop now.
Our next major climate action is in just a few days, and — with your support today — we can hold Biden accountable for the bold climate action we need to turn things around for our planet.
This unprecedented commitment to triple the world’s renewable energy capacity not only puts us back on a path to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. It lowers the cost of renewable energy everywhere, paves the way for greater negotiation at COP28, and signals a big shift toward renewable energy.
This is a big step towards a safe, livable planet — but to stop climate chaos, we must phase out fossil fuels.
On Sunday, President Biden said that the only existential threat even more frightening than a nuclear war is global warming rising above 1.5 degrees Celsius.2
As the second biggest emitter of fossil fuels, the United States has a critical role to play in preventing further climate devastation — and Biden must take the next step and commit to phasing out fossil fuels.
That’s why we are organizing our next major climate action in New York City while Biden attends the first UN meeting focused exclusively on climate.
What we are able to raise today will determine how big we can go for our climate action in New York City to pressure President Biden to lead with urgency, embrace the swift phasing-out of fossil fuels along with the development of renewable energy capacity, and ensure money is there to finance the renewable energy transition.
We need to go BIG. But we cannot do it alone:
Our campaigning is working — and we must harness this momentum if we're going to win the fight for a fossil-free future.
Thank you,
Team 350
