An unease is creeping across America as surely as drought creeps across the land. The white security blanket of the Arctic ice cap shrinks. Cherry crops diminish as corn harvests wither. Farmers and ranchers may not want to connect the dots, but there are simply too many wildfires and droughts dotting the map. Those who deny the science of climate change have been exposed as Koch-snorting extremists. As sea level rises toward Washington, people thirst for leadership on climate issues.
Poll after poll after poll shows that talking about clean energy and, yes, climate change is a political winner for Democrats, winning independent voters while isolating Republicans. Yet too many candidates remain silent on the defining issue of the next few generations. Only a few have spoken out. Those that have broken the climate silence deserve our support. We need to elect Climate Heroes.
Tuesday, October 16 will be a moneybomb for Climate Heroes - those candidates who will help break Big Oil’s stranglehold on Congress and deliver clean energy solutions. Click on the Climate Heroes page to learn more about the moneybomb and who earns our support.
