Folks,

The world’s leading energy organization just released a jaw-dropping new report:

The New York Times: Nations Must Drop Fossil Fuels, Fast, World Energy Body Warns

“Nations around the world would need to immediately stop approving new coal-fired power plants and new oil and gas fields and quickly phase out gasoline-powered vehicles if they want to avert the most catastrophic effects of climate change…”

In order to keep the global average temperature from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels -- the benchmark we must meet in order to avoid irreversible damage from climate change -- we need to make the shift to a clean energy economy NOW.

It’s an understatement to say that this won’t be a politically easy feat.

But as a scientist and former clean energy entrepreneur, I’m pushing for aggressive climate action that’s based on the best evidence available -- not the climate in Washington. I need your help to keep up the fight: Will you help us raise the remaining $13,207 we need to hit our end-of-month fundraising goal before the deadline hits in just 3 days?

Right now, we have just one question to ask ourselves: “Will our grandchildren be proud of us?”

They will if we act. If we stop pretending physics is negotiable. If we stop patting ourselves on the back for baffling half measures and make the commitment that is required in this era of consequences.

They will if we recognize that the greatest gift we have been given is a planet that’s “just right” -- and if we step up to ensure that we give them no less than our grandparents bequeathed to us.

We can’t lose hope -- we still have time to act. But this is a massive challenge that will require all of us working together: So today, will you chip in $25 or more to power our movement to fight for the bold climate legislation we need NOW?

Onward, into the breach, dear friends.
