Friend —

This Thursday, join our EcoAction Committee in sending a message to President Biden:

1. It is time to act on the climate crisis, before it is too late
   
   
2. Biden must declare a climate emergency and issue critical executive orders as outlined in climatepresident.org
   
   
3. Stop all new fossil fuels and enact a comprehensive Green New Deal with a 10 year timeline to get to zero emissions, combined with a strong Economic Bill of Rights

Climate change is the greatest threat to humanity. We are witnessing global heatwaves and devastating wildfires, annually. At our present rate of greenhouse gas emissions, we will exceed the deadly 1.5 degree C threshold within 7 years.

For the last decade, Green Party presidential candidates have pledged to take executive action on climate on their first day in office. Green Party candidates first called for a Green New Deal back in 2010. Can you pitch in – $5, $15, $50 – whatever you can so Green Party candidates, state parties and organizers can force Biden's hand to use his executive powers to jump-start a Green New Deal?

President Biden promised voters he would take at least some action on climate. Yet he has violated his campaign pledges. He has increased the number of permits for fossil fuels on federal land, despite saying he would end them. He has stood idly by while Senator Manchin, heavily invested in coal, has blocked action of his inadequate and ever-shrinking Build Back Better climate budget initiative.

Last week, Biden overruled his own staff and, at the last moment, refused to declare a climate emergency and take essential executive action on climate. Biden said (after decades in the Senate and the White House) that he still needed more time to “study” the issue.

Well, this Thursday, July 28, class is in session!

Use our action page to call President Biden on Thursday, between 11am and 3pm ET, and school him on the twin realities that the world can't afford his delays and we won't wait any longer!

By making this call and continuing to organize with us, you're sending a lifeline to future generations.

We hope you'll spread the word about this call-in action to your friends, family and community.

In Solidarity,
Green Party of the United States
