#StopFundingFossils |
Dear friends, Do you remember how President Obama and every other G20 leader
pledged to eliminate fossil fuel subsidies? It was in 2009, right before the
last major UN climate conference – the one in Copenhagen. That pledge was
great, there was much rejoicing, but then do you remember the part where those
fossil fuel subsidies actually got eliminated? Yea, neither do we. Let’s change
that. Visit StopFundingFossils.org right now and sign up to take action to end
fossil fuel subsidies. Momentum and pressure to stop funding fossils has been
growing in response to all of our rising concerns about climate change. Even
businesses, pensions funds, and other public institutions are on board, by way
of the wildly successful divestment movement. It’s time for the world’s
governments to step up and stop using our tax dollars to prop up the fossil
fuel industry. We have some incredible opportunities for some real wins between
now and the upcoming UN Climate Talks in Paris. Not the “vague promises for the
future” kind of wins – but actual removal of some important subsidies that in
turn will directly impact the bottom line of the fossil fuel industry, and how
much dangerous carbon they produce. If we remove subsidies, we can keep carbon
in the ground. But we can’t do this alone. We need you – yes, you too – now. On
November 14th we're organizing a global #StopFundingFossils Day of Action,
telling world leaders to stop funding the stuff that is causing the problem in
the first place. Right now, we need your help to make it as big as possible.
Please visit StopFundingFossils.org to sign up, and tell all of your friends to
join in. If you're on Twitter, Tweet out this message today to let everyone
know, and share this image on Facebook if you can. It’s amazing that we have to
even do this, but apparently we do – so let’s connect the dots for these
“leaders” and tell them in no uncertain terms that ongoing funding to the
fossil fuel industry is just a wonkier version of climate denial. Thanks for
being here with us fighting the good fight. Peace,
Steve
