Friend --
This week, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released another major report that paints an alarming picture of how the world is heating up even more quickly than originally thought.
According to The Guardian. "The response from UN secretary-general António Guterres was stark: 'Delay is death.'" The report cites tens of thousands of studies providing evidence for how rising temperatures and extreme weather threaten our food systems, access to fresh water, coastlines, health and safety, ecosystems and biodiversity.
I read something by the report's authors that gives me hope, however, and that hope is part of why I'm asking you to support the Green Party and our candidates today. <[link removed]>
“Targeting a climate resilient, sustainable world involves fundamental changes to how society functions, including changes to underlying values, world-views, ideologies, social structures, political and economic systems, and power relationships,” they wrote. “This may feel overwhelming at first, but the world is changing anyway – climate-resilient development offers us ways to drive change to improve wellbeing for all.”
Does that sound familiar to you? To me, it sounds a lot like the kind of transformativeGreen New Deal that Jill Stein, Howie Hawkins, and many other Green Party candidates have been championing for over a decade! Our work has been essential to taking that idea global, all the way to an intergovernmental panel of scientists.
What is the next idea that will be sparked or spread by a Green's campaign? Who will be the next Green candidates or officeholders who move the world closer to real solutions to the climate crisis, rising economic inequality, militarism and intersectional oppression?
I hope you're as excited as I am to find out! I hope you're as eager to support the Green Party and our candidates by making a donation today <[link removed]> and consider signing up to become a Monthly Sustainer, if you're not already. <[link removed]>
