The Most Powerful CFL...
. . . Is the one you put in Congress. Climate Friendly Legislators support
- reducing U.S. greenhouse gas emissions to
25 percent below 1990 levels by 2020;
- a moratorium on new, polluting, coal-burning power plants;
- requiring electric utilities to generate at least 20 percent of their
electricity from the wind, sun, oceans, and other renewable
sources by 2020; and
- relping poor and vulnerable people at home and abroad
advance in the climate-friendly economy of the future.

Urge the Senate to Strengthen Climate Change Bill
In June, the Senate is preparing to debate legislation introduced by Senators Joe Lieberman (CT) and John Warner (VA) that does not go far enough toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and lacks other key provisions.
Urge your senators to strengthen the Lieberman-Warner bill (S. 2191) so that it will
- reduce emissions faster and deeper;
- require polluters to pay for all emissions allowances;
- provide increased and better focused assistance to help low-income households adapt; and
- increase assistance to the developing countries hardest hit by the effects of climate change today.
