the Fight for Climate Change

Today, President Obama announced his plan to combat climate change. The plan isn’t perfect (nuclear power isn’t part of a responsible solution, and “clean coal” is a myth), but it contains many important steps.
Most importantly, the plan calls for the regulation of carbon emissions from U.S. power plants and an end to U.S. support for new coal plants overseas. These are monumental steps in the right direction.

Renewable Energy creates jobs

A Clean Energy Bill Congress Can Agree On
Urge Congress to support tax benefits that will unleash the power of private investment to make renewable energy even more competitive and create clean energy jobs.
Take Action Today!
ACTION ALERT Tell Congress to Level the Playing Field for Renewable Energy Congress stands poised to take an important step toward leveling the playing field on which renewable energy and fossil fuels compete for financing. But policy makers in Washington need to hear from you today to break the gridlock on clean energy. Urge Congress to support a level playing field for clean energy today.
www.ucsusa.org Renewable energy has been denied access to certain tax benefits and low-cost financing made available to the fossil fuel industry for decades. Bipartisan legislation now before the U.S. House and Senate will finally give renewable energy projects access—unlocking billions of dollars of low-cost financing for clean energy. Let’s make sure Congress does not fail to seize this opportunity to ensure renewables compete on more even ground with fossil fuels. Take action today!
