BRIEFING
Climate is a Winning Issue for Democrats in 2024
Polling shows that voters want Democrats to run on climate and clean energy.
Add Your Name: Support Climate Action
Thanks to the leadership of the Biden-Harris Administration — and the support, advocacy and work of organizers like you — the U.S. is engaging in an urgent transition away from fossil fuels to affordable renewable energy for all, and are protecting our air, water, soil and natural areas.
Tell President Biden you’re all in to defend the climate and environmental justice progress he’s made. We must share and amplify the Biden-Harris Administration’s important work on climate and environmental justice to win in November and protect our democracy, and ensure a vibrant, sustainable future. Sign the thank you letter.
THE CLOCK IS TICKING…
Time is running out to address the climate emergency. If we continue to emit greenhouse gas at the current rate we will use up the carbon budget that would keep us below the Paris Agreement target of 1.5°C of warming.
We already face devastating levels of climate harms. We must act in time.
