John -

We’re in the final hours of the COP28 climate conference. We thought we
were the closest we've ever been to an international agreement to end
coal, oil and gas. But now, that agreement has gone up in smoke.

As it stands right now, the COP draft agreement is BAD: it won't keep our
planet and people safe. Even Toeolesulusulu Schuster, the chair of the
Alliance of Small Island States, said that this agreement is a “death
sentence” for his people and small island nations around the world.^1

But it’s never over until it’s over. We can still get our demands for a
fast, fair phaseout of fossil fuels over the line, but we need your help.
The U.S. must get behind the small island states and hold the line for a
fast and fair phaseout of fossil fuels.

To make that happen, we need to pile the pressure on one of the most key
delegations at COP: our own.

The U.S. has stalled and played diplomatic games while letting Saudi
Arabia take the blame. However, any agreement requires the support of the
U.S., so it is critical that they step up and walk the talk. If they
really support a fossil fuel phaseout, they will hold the line for a
better COP text.

The most effective way to get Biden’s Climate Team to stop pretending to
be a climate leader and actually be one, right now, is on social media —
which their teams are monitoring 24/7.

We know that Biden’s Climate Team is influenced by what we do.

After nearly 30 years of COPs, the fact that they’re even talking about
phasing out fossil fuels is because of the thousands of letters, messages,
calls and posts they received from all of us.

Our activists are on the ground, right now, following the U.S. delegation
asking them to really commit to ending coal, oil and gas. And our media
experts are briefing the press. [ [link removed] ]Help us make this demand even louder by
flooding their social media channels.

We have come too far and fought too hard to lose our chance to keep 1.5
alive and begin the phaseout of all fossil fuels.

Global South countries on the frontlines of the climate crisis are leading
the way for us at COP28. They are loudly calling for a full, fast, and
fair phaseout of all fossil fuels, a powering up of renewables, a fully
supported finance package for the most vulnerable countries, and a more
ambitious adaptation plan.

[ [link removed] ]We need the U.S. to stand with them and back a fast, fair phaseout of
fossil fuels. Add your name to that call now.

In solidarity,

contact form, fill in your details and ask the U.S. to commit to a fast
and fair phaseout of fossil fuels at COP28!
