Stop Global Warming: The Virtual March
After watching An Inconvenient Truth, most of us felt as though we needed to something immediately to make our voices heard. Laurie David, one of the movie’s producers, created a way for us to do just that — an online registry for people to say, collectively, we will not have this, and to demand that our elected leaders take action to create policies which will stop the ongoing emissions of greenhouse gases. Shamefully, our nation, which leads the world in the production of greenhouse gases, remains one of only two industrialized nations which has not signed the Kyoto Protocol, thus undermining the most basic efforts to begin to address the problem.
Each one of us alone might not be able to do much to influence public policy…but what if there were a million of us?
The Virtual March has already the half million mark. If you haven’t signed on already, click here to go ahead, and take the first step in making our government aware of our seriousness about taking responsibility for global warming!
