The pressure is working, John. Bloomberg News is reporting that the Biden administration is internally talking about declaring a Climate Emergency, something that’s been off the table for years.
Hundreds of thousands of us have signed petitions, faxed the White House, protested in the streets and at campaign offices. Dozens of young people have gotten arrested. We’ve sent a message loud and clear: if Biden wants young people to see him as a Climate President, he needs to use every tool at his disposal to protect our communities and our futures.
Will you help us keep up the pressure by sponsoring one of our actions? Sunrise and our allies are planning over 200 Earth Day protests this weekend and Monday to demand Biden declare a Climate Emergency. A donation of $27 makes sure we can give Hubs the resources they need to have a successful action.

We're staring down another summer of record floods, fires, and extreme heat. Lives are on the line. Biden must do what right-wing Congressional leaders aren’t willing to do: take the bold action we need to save lives this summer and for years to come. If Biden declares a federal climate emergency, he will unlock Presidential powers he can use to: Build climate resilient, renewable energy systems to prevent power outages Repair broken infrastructure in climate-vulnerable communities Ban evictions and utility shut offs after climate disasters End oil and gas exports
