Hey John, 

The climate crisis is increasingly urgent—you and I understand that. However, some of the people elected into positions to represent our interests don’t.

They believe that climate change is not happening, claim to not know what is causing it, or say it’s too expensive to deal with.

Young people have the most to lose in the fight for a just climate. That means we have to hold our communities, families, and legislators accountable.

It starts with us.

This is why we’re relaunching our Get The Facts Out campaign. We’re here to call out members of Congress and the Trump administration who are sticking their heads in the sand on this issue.

"Global warming stopped 16 years ago."
"[Climate change] is not proven, it’s not science."
“...global temperatures have not risen in 15 years.”

🙄

These are just a few of the absurd and incorrect things legislators and other political leaders have said about the climate crisis.

Our Get the Facts Out campaign provides young people like you with an opportunity to see if your local legislators are climate deniers, and call them out about it.

And believe it or not, some Trump administration officials are also climate deniers. (Yep: one of them is the head of the Environmental Protection Agency).

We don’t have time to hope that climate deniers will finally get a clue and stop denying facts.

The climate is changing rapidly, daily. It’s impacting all of us.

We need legislators and all politicians to take a stand against climate change.

Join Generation Progress as we Get The Facts Out on climate change and call out climate deniers on inaction.
