Project Hot Seat

Scientists say we must begin to significantly reduce our emissions within the next ten years if we are to avoid the most dangerous impacts of global warming. The window of opportunity is closing, and the time for action is now. America must begin to reduce our global warming pollution. We must guarantee global warming pollution reductions, with enforceable deadlines, and we need to start an "Energy Revolution" by promoting clean and efficient sources of energy, not dirty and dangerous fossil fuels or nuclear power. We need national solutions, with real leaders on global warming solutions in the Congress.

Join the Project Hot Seat campaign, and work to make your Congress person a champion on global warming solutions. National global warming solutions include:

  • A national cap and trade system that makes real reductions within a decade

  • A national renewable energy standard of at least 20% by 2020

  • An increase in average fuel economy to 40 mpg

Take Action on Global Warming, Participate in the Congress Week of Action!


Register your event for the Congress Week of Action September15th-19th!

 

We're seeing the effects of global warming all around us - more intense heat waves that disproportionately affect the elderly and poor, more severe storms that wreak havoc on our homes and communities, and all kinds of changing cycles in the natural world.

The U.S. government continues to fuel global warming while refusing to support solutions to the problem. While people, businesses, and local governments across the country are taking action on global warming, Congress has been woefully slow to act. But they won't do anything unless they hear from the people they represent. That's where you come in.

Students have always been at the forefront of social movements. To defend our future against environmental challenges we must get organized to call for solutions.

The week of September 15th-19th is the Congress Week of Action. To learn more click the Read More button below.

Kimberly-Clark clearcuts ancient forests to make Kleenex and other paper products we use once and throw away. Join the Kleercut Campaign next year as we attempt to answer the age-old question: How many schools refusing to buy Kimberly-Clark products will it take to turn this company’s environmentally egregious behavior around? Read more to find out about the schools boycotting Kimberly-Clark products and find out how your school can get involved.
