<[link removed]>Friend --
President Biden just announced a pause in the approval of new Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facilities. While we welcome this move, we also must recognize that the plans for this LNG infrastructure have not been abandoned. The fossil fuel companies are fighting back with an army of lobbyists and cash, and this is an election year in which the President's poll numbers are slipping precisely because so many people recognize the establishment's commitment to corporate profits over the health of our communities.
In short: we cannot take this “pause” at face value. We must keep the pressure on.
Constant pressure from the climate movement has forced the Biden's administration's hand in this moment, with the Green Party and Green candidates like Jill Stein giving a clear political voice to the climate movement’s demands for decades.
Will you help us keep the pressure on for real climate action by contributing now to power Jill’s ongoing ballot drives? <[link removed]>
<[link removed]>DONATE FOR REAL CLIMATE ACTION <[link removed]>Since 2012, Jill has led the nation in calling for a Green New Deal to create millions of good jobs to fight climate crisis and transition to a just, sustainable economy and society.
While Jill’s call for a Green New Deal has gone mainstream, both Democrats and Republicans have continued to lead the world towards climate collapse. While Republicans openly parrot the fossil fuel industry’s denial of climate science, Democrats have largely given lip service to the climate movement while continuing to push an “all-of-the-above” energy policy that puts fossil fuel profits over human survival.
Just in the last few months, US oil production has hit an all-time high under Biden, while the UN Secretary General has warned that climate obstructionism led by the US has “opened the gates of hell”. 2023 was the hottest year on record, with massive heat waves, wildfires, and mega-storms providing an alarming glimpse into the future if climate meltdown isn’t stopped.
As the Green Party has pointed out, if approved, the CP2 LNG project would emit 20 times more greenhouse gas emissions than the controversial Willow oil drilling project in Alaska, and the more than 20 LNG export facilities planned for the U.S. Gulf Coast would release more climate pollution annually than the European Union - the equivalent of 440 coal plants according to the Sierra Club.
Under a Green New Deal like the one Jill champions, instead of planning new polluting LNG facilities in the Gulf Coast’s “Cancer Alley” to export fracked gas to the EU, the US could invest in heat pumps, energy retrofitting, and other green technologies to completely phase out fossil gas heating within 10 years. That’s the kind of real climate action we need to preserve a livable world for our children and future generations.
Jill isn’t just the first candidate to call for a Green New Deal on the national stage - she’s the only candidate calling for a Green New Deal who’s on track to get on the ballot across the country. But to keep up the pressure for real climate action, Jill needs your help now.
