John,

For the first time in years, we have a real chance to fight climate change at the federal level. We finally have the opportunity to set up strong protections for our communities and the planet.

But House Democrats are wasting this historic opportunity. They recently introduced the so-called CLEAN Future Act. While the name sounds promising, the bill fails to take the most fundamental step to fight climate change: halting the extraction and burning of fossil fuels.

Tell your members of Congress: Weak actions get weak results. We need aggressive action on climate change now!

Climate change is a train barreling down the track, and we have to stop it. Yet the oil and gas industry that got us into this mess will do anything to maintain business as usual. The CLEAN Future Act gives it what it wants. It enables dirty energy by:
-Pairing fracked gas with unproven, impractical “carbon capture technology” so it can be rebranded as “clean”
-Pushing pay-to-pollute trading schemes like cap-and-trade
-Promoting factory farm biogas as “clean” energy, which does nothing to reduce methane emissions and props up industrial agriculture

Big Oil & Gas are on the ropes and they know it. That’s why they're pushing so hard to distract us with greenwashing. We have to make sure our elected officials know that a bold climate plan must call for a ban on fracking and all new fossil fuel infrastructure, as well as a swift and just transition to 100 percent clean, renewable energy.

So-called “clean energy alternatives” in the CLEAN Future Act would allow the fossil fuel industry to keep drilling and polluting instead of curbing air and water pollution. We can't afford to waste time creating credit schemes and offsets markets, or propping up fossil fuels with carbon capture fantasies. We MUST stop extracting and burning fossil fuels if we are serious about tackling the climate crisis.

Send a message to your representative now: Only bold action will move us away from fossil fuels and toward real renewable energy fast enough to avert climate chaos.
