Take action to minimize and protect against the threats of a warming planet.

Specifically, we ask the Obama Administration to:
• end fossil fuel subsidies that distort the market, deplete our national treasury, and serve only wealthy corporations;
• impose a carbon tax on fossil fuel companies that fully invoices them for the damage their products do to our nation and the planet;
• build a modern and robust nationwide 'smart' grid to enable the full use of our renewable resources throughout the nation;
• support the development, deployment, and integration of renewable energy technologies and systems, in both centralized and distributed applications;
• mandate the development of regional and local climate change response plans to identify paths forward for our communities;
• lead the world to a comprehensive treaty combating climate change.
