New Jersey should join California, Washington, and New York in the Climate Alliance and commit to the Paris Agreement. New Jersey is already heavily impacted by Climate change, with rising temperatures, lower air quality, and beach erosion and damage from strong storms and hurricanes. Our state should be at the forefront, continuing to lead the country in promoting clean energy, environmental protection practices and investing in new jobs​. Let's demand a sustainable future for us and our children. Source: http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/california-york-washington-unite-back-climate-pact-47778881

Last week, Donald Trump recklessly announced that he will pull the United States out of the Paris Climate Agreement, which has been signed by 195 countries in an effort to stop catastrophic climate change, which is accelerated by carbon pollution. In response, governors from California, New York, and Washington launched a coalition committed to the carbon reduction efforts called for under the Paris Agreement, which has now been joined by a total of 12 states and Puerto Rico. Urge Gov. Otter to enlist Idaho in this new coalition and do everything possible to fight climate change.

Since facts matter we should get them straight. First, the world's climate has been altered by humans and 97% of scientific studies back that up. Second, coal is more expensive than solar (which is the cheapest energy source on the planet) and wind power, and it will die on its own even without solar and wind. Third, more people are employed in clean energy than the coal industry by a wide margin. Fourth, since clean energy is becoming more and more accessible and inexpensive, we don't need to depend so much on fossil fuels for our energy. Another fact that gets buried in all the "fake news" reporting about climate is that there is only limited amount of fossil fuels and even if we could dig them all up, someday we will run out. Do not follow Mr. Trump into this abyss of thoughtlessness and instead listening to the facts. I am concerned for our planet's and our children's future. There are more extreme weather events throughout the world and that is due to the increase in the earth's temperature. The desert areas of the world are expanding and soon the people living in those areas will move where the water is putting more and more of a strain on the water supplies in those areas. I could go on and on but I think this gets the point across.

I'm a registered Republican, and father of a toddler. I am living the American Dream, but I know my children and grandchildren will not live the same dream if we don't all stand up and demand real leadership as it pertains to climate change. This is a bi-partisan issue! The future generations are counting on us!

Traveling through Wyoming, we can see the damage done when our extraction industries are not pursuing strong environmental practices as a part of their business model. We can do better, for Wyoming and the world.

Saving the Atlantic Coast from oil drilling!

We want our local community to create a safe sustainable lawns and areas for small children. We want to eliminate the risk of disease from these chemicals!

Last month, Donald Trump signed an Executive Order threatening Giant Sequoia National Monument with fossil fuel development. The Department of the Interior is accepting public comments on whether to let Big Oil destroy Giant Sequoia. So we need you to speak up NOW and help save this special place! Tell the Department of the Interior: NO fossil fuel development in Giant Sequoia!

Hawai'i will be highly affected by climate change and should be one of the leaders in our country to do all we can to mitigate it.

All coastal states should be concerned about this issue.

It's time we establish our state's rights in the fight to reduce carbon emissions at our state's power plants, reduce methane emissions, and boycott OPEC and the American Oil and Gas Industry by NOT driving gas and diesel passenger cars on Sundays. We also recommend that Coloradians boycott all fuel transported via the Keystone Pipeline and increase the State of Colorado incentives for Plugin Hybrid Vehicles and Electric Vehicles

Recent tests on those pipelines indicate they may be at risk for failure.
