Dear John,
Today I’m marching with lots of our East Coast volunteers to participate in the March to End Fossil Fuels Parade in New York City.
I’m old enough to have experienced what it means when an idea becomes a movement, which over time then becomes a power that simply will not be stopped. And ending fossil fuels is at such a point today. A critical mass of people at last seem to understand that when it comes to fossil fuels the era of extraction must end, so a new era of green energy can begin
To make this transition, it will not be enough to simply invest in green energy. It’s not enough to go clean if you’re still investing in dirty. We must begin right now to ramp down fossil fuel extraction , not ramp it up the way both Presidents Trump and Biden have done.
It’s time for a WW2 level mass mobilization for a just transition from a dirty economy to a clean economy, and as President I will preside over that.

“But wait a minute, Marianne,” one gentleman said to me one day. “I make over 6 figures at my job working for Big Oil. Are you telling me to go install solar panels for $15 an hour?”
“No Sir, I’m not,” I told him. That’s where the word “just” comes in to the concept of a just transition. Many thousands of people who work at least indirectly for fossil fuel companies have the technological, research and manufacturing careers sorely needed in a green economy. I will work tirelessly with the fossil fuel companies – as long as they will work with me – to partner in the single greatest industrial transition in modern American history. In doing so, we will create jobs, we will create profits, and we will create a safer and more livable planet.
In the meantime, I will immediately upon taking office declare a Climate Emergency . Why? First of all, because there is one. But more importantly, because as your President I will not be pussy footing around. During my administration, the US government will refuse to bow down to any oil producer, foreign or domestic. We’re not staying stuck, and we’re not going backwards. We’re going a create a Green Century for ourselves and our children.
Every time I give a talk on the campaign trail, I ask people to raise their hand if they are a young person or have heard a young person say the following: that under normal circumstances they would be thinking about having a child but that given the state of the environment today they don’t think it would be a responsible thing to do.
Never does less than 1/3 of the room raise their hands – and at one talk recently a majority did!
That’s it. We’re going to listen to our young people. They want a better life, and they deserve it.
I hope you will work as hard as we are – as a donor, a volunteer, a friend of the campaign – to amplify this message so we can get it done.
