Demand more climate action from the Biden administration!

Dear Friend,

To address the global catastrophe of climate change, we need global leaders to equitably phase out fossil fuels. But President Biden’s administration has and continues to approve massive fossil fuel projects, despite his verbal commitment to climate action.

Rather than equitably phasing out fossil fuels, the leading driver of the climate crisis, the U.S. is actively expanding them. The Biden administration has approved a slew of new fossil fuel ventures, including drilling on public lands, the construction of Minnesota's Line 3 tar sands pipeline, the Willow Project in Alaska, thousands of miles of pipelines to boost liquefied natural gas exports, and construction of the Mountain Valley Pipeline.

This will only exacerbate our climate crisis. Now, more than ever, we need to use every tool in our arsenal to build a livable, equitable future.

Add your name and demand President Biden put an equitable end to the era of fossil fuels and invest in a clean and sustainable future for all.

We need climate action from the Biden administration

One of the actions the Biden administration could take is declaring a climate emergency under the National Emergencies Act. That would give us the ability to reinstate the crude oil export ban, justly halt new fossil fuel projects and drilling, redirect disaster relief funds toward distributed renewable energy construction in frontline communities, and marshal companies to fast-track renewable transportation and clean power generation. All while creating millions of high-quality union jobs.

Biden also has the power to deny approvals for any new fossil fuel projects and mandate a phase-out of fossil fuel production on federal lands and waters -- two of the several critical steps that scientists affirmed are vital to staying under the global warming limit necessary to avert the most devastating climate catastrophes.

Climate change is already an emergency -- we need an emergency declaration and an immediate end to fossil fuel project approvals. There’s still a lot more Biden can do. It’s time for the Biden administration to step up and act before it’s too late.

Sign the petition to President Biden: Declare climate an emergency under the National Emergencies Act and stop the federal approval of all new fossil fuel projects.

Onward,
