Friends -
It will not shock you to hear that climate change poses an existential threat to our planet.
Yet Senator Joe Manchin and others think it's a good idea to push a so-called "side deal" in the Senate to expand fossil fuel production and create more carbon emissions.
The last thing we should be doing is offering a huge giveaway to Big Oil to drill, produce and sell more fossil fuels.
So for a limited time only, we're offering this brand-new Green New Deal sticker to show the fossil fuel industry where our movement stands on this issue.
The American people and people throughout the world are seeing the devastating impact climate change is having on their communities and their families with their own eyes.
In the past, a series of climate disasters like the ones we're seeing today might have seemed like a silly plot in a bad movie about the apocalypse.
Unfortunately, however, this is not a movie. This is reality. And if we allow the fossil fuel industry to continue polluting our planet, this reality will likely become much worse.
We will see more devastating and extreme heat. We will see more floods. We will see more rising sea levels, more extreme weather disturbances, more ocean acidification, more drought, more famine, more disease, and more human suffering.
At a time when climate change is threatening the existence of the planet, why would anybody be talking about substantially increasing carbon emissions and expanding fossil fuel production in the U.S.?
We need a Green New Deal, and we need it now.
For the sake of our children, our grandchildren and future generations we have got to make it clear to the fossil fuel industry that their short-term profits are not more important than the future of our planet.
In solidarity,
Team Bernie
