 Fight Global Warming!
The League of Women Voters of the US has issued an Action Alert requesting members to write their US Representatives urging support for the "Principles for Global Warming Legislation" as guidelines for comprehensive legislative action to address climate change. The "Principles for Global Warming Legislation" were developed by Congressional representatives Henry Waxman, Edward Markey, and Jay Inslee to "support strong, fair, science-based legislation to fight global warming while creating jobs and building a clean energy economy." The four goals of global warming legislation as outlined by these representatives are:
1. Reduce emissions to avoid dangerous global warming.
2. Transition America to a clean energy economy.
3. Recognize and minimize any economic impacts from global warming legislation.
4. Aid communities and ecosystems vulnerable to harm from global warming.
For complete information, sample letters, and a service that helps you direct an email or print letter to YOUR US Congress Representative, visit the LWV US website here.
If you would like to volunteer for the League, please contact us by e-mail at info@lwvcincinnati.org call us at (513) 281-8683.
