Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet.
Friends,
Today is the 50th anniversary of Earth Day.
You may not know this, but the idea behind Earth Day was started by a U.S. Senator and inspired by the state of California.
Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson traveled to California to see the devastating effects of the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill firsthand.
Spurred to action by what he saw, Senator Nelson decided our country needed a national day of public consciousness about protecting our planet. So he joined forces with Pete McCloskey, a Republican congressman, to put forward a “national teach-in on the environment.”
Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet. There is no Planet B. We must address the climate crisis and elect a president willing to stand up to polluters and act to protect our environment. Not just for ourselves, but for future generations.
We have an obligation to continue to advocate for our planet, which is why today we’re asking you to join us.
Add your name today if you are committed to the cause of protecting our environment and saving our planet from the threat of climate change.
Today, we’re at a critical moment for our planet.
The entire world is looking for climate solutions. Americans can and must lead.
However, the anti-climate agenda coming out of this administration is disheartening and we can either retreat, or we can fight for our planet.
If you’re with us, we hope you will add your name today and commit to fighting for a cleaner planet.
Together in the fight,
Team Kamala
