WHY: Global warming is the most urgent threat facing humanity today,
leading to problems such as melting glaciers, rising sea levels,
catastrophic storms, migrating viruses, and population
displacement. Over the past 100 years, the mass consumption of
fossil fuels has contributed to a dangerous warming of the earth
that has and will continue to adversely impact the way we live.

It's more than an environmental issue; it's about our national
security, it's about our public health. It's an urgent matter of
survival for everyone on the planet.
