Carbon pollution is warming our planet. Pledge to be part of the solution!

It's time to face the facts. Every day, each of us produces carbon pollution in any number of ways – including from the car we drive, the meat we eat, and the clothes we buy.

Did you know that if livestock were their own country, they would be the 2nd largest emitter of greenhouse gases on the planet? Or, that purchasing and using clothing accounts for 3% of global carbon emissions?

Our climate is rapidly warming and the repercussions are already proving devastating. Massive wildfires are becoming more common while rising sea levels threaten to drown entire coastal cities and islands. Droughts, heat waves, and extreme storms are also wrecking havoc.

We're all part of the problem and it's our responsibility to be part of the solution. With just a few changes to our lifestyles we can reduce our carbon footprints. Make your next car electric or walk, bike and take public transportation when you can. In your home, turn lights off when you leave a room and switch old bulbs to LED. Eat less meat and when you do go carnivorous, choose grass-fed organic beef.

We made this problem, but we can also make a better, healthier world. Sign and show your support for lifestyle changes that will help ensure the planet stays cool and clean for generations to come.
