Dear John, President Biden has made an ambitious and critically important commitment to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50% by 2030, more than doubling our previous commitment in the 2015 Paris agreement. Meeting this goal is essential for the long-term well-being of our business community and beyond, and imperative to ultimately reaching the target net-zero emissions goal by 2050. None of these goals will be achievable without strong and consistent support of Congress. As a sustainable business leader, you understand that a healthy economy and healthy environment are not mutually exclusive, but instead are closely related. | |
It is imperative that as business leaders, we utilize our voices to make our position and presence known, in order to support a national effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to avoid the continued catastrophic effects of climate change. Sign on to this letter to let Congress know that you support the President’s climate commitments because it is good for our planet and good for business. Thank you for your continued interest in our work and support of the American Sustainable Business Council. | |
