Safe Climate Act makes sense
Shockingly, a Democrat is trying to do something worthwhile in the House.
Rep. Henry Waxman is pushing the Safe Climate bill that would freeze America’s carbon emissions in 2010 at 2009 levels, and follow with an accelerating reduction thereafter. On its face, it seems a reachable, sane approach to reverse the coming destruction of climate change.
Check it out, and if you agree with it, write to your Representative to ask for their support. You can contact your Representative here
Here’s the pity note I sent to my representative a few moments ago:
Just a quick note to urge you to support The Safe Climate Act (H.R. 5642)
Global warming threatens us all — and none more urgently than those in need, whether displaced by Katrina, or those loosing their homes in Alaska as the permafrost melts.
Thank you for your consideration of the Safe Climate Act: http://www.house.gov/waxman/safeclimate/index.htm
I found out about the act from The Inspired Protagonist, the blog of Seventh Generation.

I’m kind of late to the game here and playing catch-up, but I just wanted to say thanks for picking up on our mention of the Safe Climate Act and spreading the word about it. It’s a critical piece of legislation, and it needs all the support we can muster. Hopefully, there will be some changes in Congress in a few weeks and things like climate change will start to get the serious attention they so desperately need.
