Dear friends,
Friday is the last day to voice your opinion on whether the EPA -- the Environmental
Protection Agency -- should regulate carbon dioxide pollution, the primary cause of
the climate crisis. This is a big deal.
The EPA is taking public comment, before making a ruling.
Of course, special interests -- like the oil and coal lobbies -- are working
overtime to defeat a positive ruling and have already gotten thousands of comments
submitted in opposition.
Most people don't know about this opportunity for public comment, so your voice can
make a real difference. And with a new president in the White House, it's likely
that someone will actually be listening. Submit your public comment to the EPA here:

In April 2007 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency
has the authority to regulate carbon dioxide if it is harming our health and
welfare. After more than a year of delay, the EPA is finally now requesting public
comments on whether carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping pollutants are
endangering our health and our climate.
Join us, and send a message about how crucial it is to reduce harmful carbon dioxide
pollution. That you expect the EPA to use its powers to protect our health and
welfare. That we can "Repower America" by using energy sources that don't emit
carbon dioxide, and make the switch to 100% clean electricity. And that the
solutions to the climate crisis are the same ones needed to address our economic and
security challenges.
This is our chance to go on the public record -- all the comments will be posted on
the EPA's website. To post your public comment, just go here:

For nearly eight years, the Bush administration has done nothing to address the
growing threats we face from global warming. Hurricanes are getting stronger, the
North polar icecap is melting, and we've suffered through intense droughts, floods
and killer heat waves.
The deadline is November 28th. Let's help end the era of delay.
Thanks,
Cathy Zoi
CEO
