Friends –

We’re about to ask you to read a long email looking back on 2021, and the stakes we’re facing in the fight against the climate crisis. Then, we’re going to ask you to contribute $3 to help make sure our movement has the resources necessary to continue that fight.

We’ll explain more in just a moment, but if that’s all you need to hear to add your support, please use this link:

All year long, we’ve seen cause for alarm on climate.

This past February in Texas, an unprecedented winter storm left millions without heat or electricity after the state’s critical infrastructure was not equipped to deal with plummeting temperatures.

July saw Earth’s hottest month on record, as uncontrolled wildfires spread across the Western United States and extreme heat waves up to 120° melted roads in the Pacific Northwest.

Meanwhile, Germany, Belgium, and countries across Central Europe saw historic floods that killed over 200 people, washed away homes and severely damaged roads, bridges, and electrical grids leaving thousands without power.

In August, the UN Secretary General called the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s latest report “code red for humanity.” The report warned that without significant action we will continue to see hotter temperatures, rising sea levels, more extreme weather events, increased flooding, wider-spread wildfires, and more searing droughts all across the planet.

Then, just this month, the largest and deadliest December tornado outbreak in history tore through towns and cities in Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, and Tennessee, killing at least 89 people, devastating local communities and displacing countless families.

The suffering and destruction we’ve seen in 2021 has been a crystal clear reminder: The climate crisis is not some far-off future threat — it’s already here.

This is why we cannot give up in our fight for a livable future.

It’s why we need a Green New Deal, a Civilian Climate Corps, and to rebuild and reimagine our nation’s crumbling infrastructure.

It’s why we must put environmental justice and high-quality job creation at the very center of our agenda.

It’s why we must continue organizing, growing our movement, and building progressive power in Congress and beyond. And it’s also why we’re asking you today:

Will you contribute $3 or anything you can afford to help us in our fight for climate justice? Every donation will be put straight to work in making our progressive agenda a reality. [[link removed]]

As we can see, the threats of climate change are becoming more apparent and dangerous day after day, month after month, and year after year.

So as we close the book on 2021 and look toward the future, it’s more clear than ever that this generational challenge will require all of us standing together and fighting for a just and liveable world.

Combating this crisis is THE environmental, economic, national security, and moral issue of our time. The moment to deliver jobs, justice, and hope for our country and our planet is now.

Use this link to add your $3 donation today. We would not ask if it were not so important. [[link removed]]

Thanks in advance for your support. And as always, thank you for being a part of our movement.

In solidarity,

Team Markey
