Government and polluting corporations will change only if we make our voices heard. We must act now, with great ethical clarity and in very great numbers, to insist that our elected leaders at every level boldly implement the new policies and technologies that will be needed to halt global warming.
The time has come to network a wide array of civic, scientific, environmental, religious, student, and other organizations with enlightened business leaders, concerned families, and engaged communities, banded together, marching, protesting, demanding action and accountability from governments and corporations, and taking steps as consumers and communities to realize sustainability in our everyday lives.
In 1970, twenty million people turned out for the first Earth Day and demanded environmental protections. This led to the establishment of the EPA, Clean Air Act and Endangered Species Act. People did that. People build movements and movements can move mountains.
Join Live Earth Action Resource Network and be part of such a movement. In so doing, you honor far-sighted and courageous predecessors such as Lincoln, King, and Ghandi, and those who led the movements to win women's suffrage, reduce the superpower's nuclear weapons arsenals, and end apartheid.
Join us:
- So that we may present a unified voice, demanding that today’s policymakers implement the technologies needed to aggressively reduce global warming pollutants.
- And help us reach out to America’s communities about global warming’s causes and solutions.
- So that you can look your grandchildren in the eye and tell them that you were part of the solution.
