John, I just can’t get this number out of my head: $500,000.

I came across a new chilling report that revealed that's how much the climate crisis will cost a typical child born in 2024 during their lifetime.

And without swift governmental action, the cost per person could balloon to as much as $1 million!

Here’s how we could end up here: housing and energy costs will increase exponentially due to more frequent severe weather; food prices will skyrocket as the agricultural industry contends with new climate realities; taxes will need to go up to cover spiraling costs in healthcare and infrastructure repair; and personal earnings will shrink because of reduced labor hours and health risks, particularly for those in outdoor careers.

Yet, amidst these bleak forecasts, there's a ray of hope. The same ICF study showing these daunting costs also tells us something crucial — if we act fast to cut emissions, we can significantly ease these financial burdens. It suggests that kids born this year could pocket an extra $300,000 if we swiftly tackle the climate crisis.

We need to follow the science. That means putting a halt to ALL new fossil fuel projects; dramatically reducing our carbon footprint by switching to clean energy like wind and solar; making sure frontline workers and communities get a fair deal; and investing in climate-resilient infrastructure.

I’ll be honest, John. When I read this report, I thought about my grandkids. This is not the future I want for them — and if there's something I can do to make the world better for them, I will do it.

That’s why I’m so committed to our shared mission at the Jane Fonda Climate PAC. Elections matter deeply. By electing leaders committed to bold climate actions like the ones I mentioned, we can mold a brighter future for the next generation.

This leads me to one simple question: Will you join me and take our pledge to vote for climate champions this year? The time for change is now, and that change begins with us at the ballot box. [[link removed]]
