Urge the Obama Administration to Actively Support Climate Legislation

This comes from the Union of Concerned Scientists:

Today, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) released the Climate 2030 Blueprint, a peer-reviewed study showing that the United States can dramatically cut global warming pollution while saving households and businesses in every region of the nation billions of dollars in energy costs.

The study shows that combining energy and transportation policies with a strong limit or “cap” on emissions—set at 56 percent below 2005 levels by 2030—would save the average U.S. household $900 on electricity, heating, and transportation costs in 2030. In that same year, businesses would benefit from collective net energy savings of $130 billion.

Already, the Climate 2030 Blueprint is influencing the debate on climate and energy policy—two weeks ago UCS President Kevin Knobloch was invited to present the findings to the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which is currently crafting climate legislation.

As a UCS activist, you too can help build momentum for federal climate policy by urging President Obama and senior administration officials to play an active role in ensuring that Congress passes a strong, comprehensive climate and energy policy this year.

I also suggest writing the media to express your opinion.
