Help Support Earth Day


Building a sustainable society is the critical challenge of this century. Everything depends on it. -- Sen. Gaylord Nelson, founder of Earth Day


Vital Statistics:

1970 world population: 3,707,183,055
2008 world population: 6,661,331,615
2: the United States' rank in worldwide carbon dioxide emissions (behind China)
100 percent of the 10 warmest years on record since 1977.
200 million: Number of people worldwide who might be permanently displaced by mid century because of floods, draughts and higher sea levels - if the average global temperature continues to rise.

Please go to http://ww2.earthday.net/ and sign their Sky Petition telling Congress that if they want to keep their jobs they must take stronger and immediate action to stop global warming and to reverse the extraordinary environmental destruction that is taking place around the world.

By doing this one simple thing you can have a voice in the fight that we all must win.

Thanks!
