Dear John, "Countries must make an unprecedented effort to cut their levels of greenhouse gases in the next decade to avoid climate chaos, the UN has warned, as it emerged that emissions hit a new high last year." - read it at the Guardian ([link removed])
The world's two largest funders of fossil fuel (including exploration, fracking, pipelines, etc.) are Chase and Wells Fargo - they are conveniently across Wisconsin Ave. from each other in Milwaukee.

Join us to demand they do more:
