Petition Text
Dear Member of Congress:

to work building wind turbines, installing solar panels, weatherizing
homes, and building the 100-miles-per-gallon cars of the future.

energy from renewable sources, such as wind and solar power, by 2025.
• Cutting energy use in new buildings by half and requiring utilities to use 15 percent less energy by 2020.
• Reducing global warming pollution by 35 percent by 2020 and by at least 80 percent by 2050.
• Holding Big Oil, Dirty Coal and other polluters accountable and making them pay for their global warming pollution.
