Energy
and Climate Change
In the United States, as in other parts of the world, citizens are increasingly concerned about the threats to our future posed by climate change and our addiction to fossil fuels. In turn, many US citizens recognize the need to take responsibility for ourselves and our country in transforming the ways we produce and consume energy -- in our households, communities, regions and nation.
A good starting point is to adopt and endorse the
Citizen's 5-Step Action Plan
If you are willing to take these five steps, then let us know! Endorse
the statement The Responsibility of US
Citizens on Energy and Climate Change and become part of the Citizens
Campaign for Sustainable Energy!
