VOTE BLUE: THIS CAMPAIGN IS ABOUT SLOWING GLOBAL WARMING AND A LIVABLE FUTURE

There is little American mainstream media coverage of increasing global warming and its numerous, profound negative impacts.

The lack of coverage is because global warming has been long “politicized” by the fossil industries, their billionaire owner/shareholder activists and the Republican Party for more than two decades. It is made to seem like a question of political beliefs rather than the continuous accumulation scientific evidence. The American public has been increasingly inundated with outright lies about the compelling evidence (since 1988) of global warming and its primary causation being human activity - and by many forms of more subtle misinformation.
This misinformation is designed by public relations experts to manipulate public opinion -  at least from 1993 when the Clinton Administration first proposed legislation to slow global warming and avert a catastrophic future.

The media, under political and economic pressure, continues to avoid the most important issue in this election - bearing on the very future of humanity. 

What can be done? 
  • Help elect a President and members of Congress that are on record as recognizing that human activity is the main driver of this crisis and 
  • that reducing warming gas emissions as quickly as possible is the most urgent priority for the new Administration and Congress in 2017.

VOTE OUT GOP DENIERS/OBSTRUCTIONISTS!
Scientists have been writing and speaking out for public consumption from 1993 on. Other citizens can help raise the profile of the issue in many ways (for example, contacting their local media outlets) but during this active campaigning period we can also ask candidates to explain their positions in the public campaign forums

Specifically, why are the Republican candidates rejecting the worldwide scientific consensus? 

Since 1975, the worldwide scientific community has been collecting more and more evidence that the world is warming primarily because of or long use of coal, oil, and gas.

Among advanced industrial nations, the United States is the ONLY nation not recognizing the continuously accumulating scientific evidence that we are on the verge of runaway global warming that will threaten the very survival of humanity. The 2016 election is our chance – our hope – to slow global warming enough so that humanity can adapt to the negative impacts that warming brings with minimum catastrophic impact. 

We can all be active in the campaign:
  1. by voting
  2. try to educate others 
  3. help increase voter registration 
  4. help increase voter turnout 






Everyone can help protect the future for our children, grandchildren...


...this is no time for complacency.
