John,

Record fires in Australia. A massive oil spill in Brazil. The threat of a
new oil war with Iran. These are the realities we’re facing just two weeks
into 2020 — an escalating climate crisis, a government beholden to Big
Oil’s bidding, and less time to stop it all than ever before.

With the stakes so high, it’s imperative for the candidates in this year’s
election to demonstrate their leadership with climate plans that meet the
scale of the crisis. But Pete Buttigieg’s plans don’t make the cut. He
hasn’t committed to end fracking or stop all new fossil fuel projects, and
his plans for energy transition would leave us burning fossil fuels until
2050.

We can’t entertain mediocre climate plans while the crisis escalates
around us. [ [link removed] ]Tell Buttigieg to step it up and offer climate solutions
that match the scale of the crisis.

We’re calling on Buttigieg to do the following:

* Oppose all new federal permits and leases for fossil fuel
infrastructure and extraction.
* Commit to investigating the fossil fuel industry’s role in causing the
climate crisis.
* Support a national end to fracking.
* Honor the No Fossil Fuel Money pledge by rejecting campaign funds and
advice from fossil fuel executives, lobbyists and PACs.

Regardless of how you feel about Buttigieg, we all benefit from holding
candidates to a higher standard. By demonstrating that voters won’t accept
mediocre policies, we put pressure on every candidate to do better. The
end result for all of us is a stronger climate platform in the election
— no matter who wins the primary.

Let’s hold Buttigieg to a higher standard, and raise the stakes for
climate policy in this election. [ [link removed] ]Click here to tell Buttigieg it’s time
to step up his climate plans.

Forward,

Clarissa

PS - Buttigieg isn’t the only one whose climate plans need work. Vice
President Joe Biden’s climate plans also fall short. [ [link removed] ]Sign the petition
