[ [link removed] ]As extreme weather events worsen, we can't accept Donald Trump's
executive order once again pulling the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement.
Sign the petition now!

Dear fellow MoveOn member,

Donald Trump issued an executive order directing the U.S. to withdraw from
the Paris Agreement, again, on his first day in office—a reckless decision
for the future of our planet. Instead of committing to the legally binding
international treaty aimed at mitigating catastrophic climate change,
Trump has put our climate and planet again at risk. We have to take action
NOW.

In 2017, I started a petition demanding that the U.S. reenter the historic
agreement, and more than 500,000 MoveOn members signed it. Together, we
built momentum that led President Biden to recommit the United States in
2021. Now, it's up to us to speak out again.

The Paris Agreement represents a global promise by governments to fulfill
their moral obligation by restoring and preserving our most foundational
right—the right to a livable planet. As the leader of the world's
second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases, Trump made a decision that
struck a devastating blow to the global effort to protect future
generations.

[ [link removed] ]With Trump's return to the White House, experts fear he will move us
backward yet again, throwing international climate efforts into chaos.
Will you sign my petition to show the overwhelming public opposition to
withdrawing from the Paris Agreement?

Every tenth of a degree of warming brings more and more dangerous
outcomes—from hotter days to increased wildfire risks.^1 We've seen the
heartbreaking toll of climate change firsthand, from the unprecedented Los
Angeles wildfires to record-breaking hurricanes across the Atlantic.
Without immediate action to reduce emissions, millions will suffer, with
the poorest nations bearing the heaviest burden.

[ [link removed] ]Remaining committed to the Paris Agreement is not just common sense,
it's also a moral obligation—to Americans and the entire world. Sign the
petition NOW to demonstrate that we refuse to move backward on climate
action.

It is we, the people—acting with hope, clarity, and purpose—who must fight
for a livable planet! Add your name to show public support for the Paris
Agreement!

Trump's history of climate denialism is well documented. In the aftermath
of Hurricane Helene last fall, which devastated communities, left millions
without power, and claimed hundreds of lives, Trump called climate change
"one of the biggest scams."^2,3

And we know Trump will fight tooth and nail to roll back key environmental
protections—he's shown time and time again that he is more interested in
protecting polluting industries than he is in safeguarding our future. In
his inauguration speech, Trump renewed his promise to Big Oil to reverse
Biden's protections against toxic drilling, stating "We will drill, baby,
drill."^4

Nearly every nation worldwide signed the Paris Agreement in 2014,
committing to the express goal of limiting global temperature rise to well
below 2° C, and ideally below 1.5° C.^5

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition to OPPOSE Trump's decision to interrupt our
commitment to climate progress—and show your continued commitment to fight
for a healthier future for generations to come.

Right now, deadly wildfires are raging across the Western United States,
destroying entire neighborhoods, displacing families, and leaving
communities in ruins overnight. Extreme weather events like this are
exactly why it's so disastrous that Trump is abandoning our commitment to
the historic Paris Agreement.

The climate crisis knows no borders, and when one of the biggest polluters
pulls back from its responsibilities, it sends a dangerous signal to other
nations. The domino effect could undermine the collective global effort to
avert disaster, wreaking climate and economic havoc, and upending the
lives of millions of people across the planet.

This is not just a call to action; it is a declaration. Together, we will
lead, innovate, and inspire at every level—from households to city halls,
from small businesses to state capitals.

climate and the Paris Agreement.

Thanks for all you do.
