Declare Climate Emergency: Take Bold Action for Survival

The current state of our planet is alarming, with unprecedented heatwaves, fires, and melting sea ice. The root cause of this crisis is the continued use of fossil fuels. Despite this, there has been a reluctance to declare a climate emergency and halt support for new pipelines and drilling. It is within the power of the executive to ban new drilling leases, block pipelines, and promote renewable energy. The time for visionary leadership is now. Bold action is required to transition away from fossil fuels and address the climate emergency. This is not just a matter of policy, but a matter of survival. The request is clear: Declare a climate emergency and take decisive action.
