Trump is out, but we’re still in! Add your name and show the nearly 200 countries committed to the Paris Climate Agreement that you are STILL IN »
Trump’s utterly disastrous decision to remove the U.S. from Paris threatens our security, our public health and welfare, our economic prosperity, and our clean energy industry, which supports millions of U.S. jobs. It threatens the air we breathe and the water we drink. It threatens our ecosystems and disproportionately affects the most vulnerable people on our planet. With this historic mistake, Trump has now added the US to a tiny list of only two other countries, Syria and Nicaragua, who have not signed on. Trump has removed us from a seat at the table of global climate action. But despite Trump, governors, mayors, businesses, investors, and universities across the country have started collaborating in unprecedented ways to work toward the goals of the Paris Agreement. They're still in, and we are, too. Join us and the millions of other Americans who believe in climate action by signing on to the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement. The world condemns Trump’s removal of the US from the Paris Climate Agreement. Sign today to stand with Paris and climate action » In the last week since Trump withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement, the world, and the American people, have been pushing back. The governor of Hawaii just signed a law aligning with the Paris Climate Agreement. The governor of California went to China to sign an agreement to keep working together to lower emissions and move forward on climate action. Once again, it is the people who are resisting Trump’s terrible decision, which puts our climate, public health, and communities at risk. Our resistance has been effective in so many ways — from blocking the travel ban to stopping the border wall — let’s keep using it to save the planet from climate change. Signing on to #IAmStillIn lets the world know we’re with them in this fight to keep the planet from warming 2 degrees Celsius, beyond the point of no return. We must make sure, for ourselves and future generations, that we move forward with the Paris Climate Agreement’s goals to stop climate change in its tracks, no matter what Trump does. SIGN: Climate change is here and so are we. So we’ll move forward with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement, no matter what Trump does » The world is moving forward on climate action, even if Trump isn’t. Raise your voice and say #IAmStillIn today! Thank you for all you do.  Kristin Brown Director of Digital Strategy League of Conservation Voters
I commit to:
The people of the United States remain dedicated to creating a just, clean energy future. Together, we will protect the prosperity, security, and health and welfare of our country and the planet.
The American People Support the Paris Agreement
Climate change is a serious threat to the economic prosperity, national security, and public health and welfare of the United States and nations around the globe. That’s why more than 190 nations came together in 2015 to create the Paris Agreement, a historic pact to curb carbon pollution and avoid the worst impacts of climate change before it’s too late.
On June 1, 2017, President Donald Trump announced that he would withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement. This decision creates grave risks for the American people and the planet.
Fortunately, states, cities, businesses, investors, colleges, universities, and others are working together to take up the mantle of climate leadership in the United States. They account for a considerable percentage of the U.S. economy and U.S. emissions—and they are working together to achieve the clean energy vision of the Paris Agreement.
They are still in, and we are, too.
President Trump’s decision does not represent the will of the American people or the direction of our country. The majority of Americans support the Paris Agreement—including the majority of Americans in every state. Meanwhile, clean energy capacity and clean energy jobs continue to grow—and continue to support our economy.
We are telling the world and our leaders at all levels of government that we support the Paris Agreement and stand with people everywhere in the fight against climate change.
We call on U.S. states, cities, businesses, investors, colleges, and universities to pursue ambitious climate goals and make sure that the rest of the world understands that the United States remains a climate leader, regardless of the actions of the federal government.
We applaud the leadership of these subnational entities and we encourage them to work together to determine their collective emissions reduction potential, set an ambitious climate goal, and strive to meet it.
As individuals, we will work to reduce our carbon emissions and support the global climate movement.
The people of the United States remain dedicated to creating a clean energy future. Together, we will protect the prosperity, security, and health and welfare of our country and the planet.

Trump vs. Paris 5MAI17
IT is no surprise the drumpf/trump-pence administration is plotting to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement, after all, isn't climate change a hoax? But this is nothing to joke about, we are all at risk. drumpf/trump-pence are challenging us on multiple fronts expecting we will tire of fighting him. We can not, must not give up on the good fights we are waging. He is a easy way to send a message to the drumpf/trump-pence administration and EPA director scott pruitt. Click the link to sign the petition telling them not to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement. If tens of thousands of us send them this message they just might listen. And please share with family and friends and on facebook and other social media. Remember, democracy is not a spectator sport! From 350.org.....
| Trump is leaning towards withdrawing the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement next week. Speak out now to show that political momentum for climate action is unstoppable, and send a signal to the world that we won't turn back. |

Friends,
News reports from Washington say that Donald Trump is leaning towards pulling the United States out of the Paris Climate Agreement, the backbone of international climate action. He's meeting with top advisers to decide next Tuesday.
Pulling out of Paris is immoral, economically foolish and puts the interests of fossil fuel billionaires ahead of vulnerable people everywhere. But it’s not the end of the road for climate action -- if we keep speaking out.
In this moment, it’s crucial that we, the people, demonstrate that political momentum for climate action is unstoppable -- so that every world leader, CEO and local government official keeps their priorities straight and fights for our future, not the profits of the coal, oil and gas industry.
Our best tool is showing that millions of people continue to stand for climate progress. We’re joining a global alliance of organizations to send that message to the world (and Trump) next week. Can you stand with us? Click here to show your support for the Paris Agreement and climate action.
Climate denial is the product of greed, and there is no administration greedier than Trump's, which is led by fossil fuel executives and their political puppets.
The biggest danger is that other governments and corporations follow him into the abyss. Decades of full-scale mobilization by people everywhere put the Paris Agreement into place, and we can defend its steps forward by speaking out with one voice, and organizing to make it even stronger - by marching in the streets, demanding divestment, and so much more.
Last weekend over 200,000 people in Washington, D.C. and many around the world marched for jobs, justice and climate action -- the exact opposite of Trump’s plan to back out of Paris. This week, a Global Divestment Mobilisation is challenging prominent institutions on every continent to pull their support from the fossil fuel industry.
We will keep going. Tell Trump, and the world, that you are a part of the unstoppable momentum for climate action -- and help keep us on the road forward to 100% renewable energy that works for all.
The path to climate justice was never going to run smooth, but we are still on course for the action we need. Thank you for being a part of it.
