The U.S. Senate’s failure to pass a strong climate bill in 2009 presented a significant roadblock to progress in protecting our coast and communities from the impacts of global warming. From rising sea-levels to more powerful hurricanes made stronger by rising water temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana and the entire Gulf Coast are ground zero for the impacts of global warming.Our partners at 1Sky have organized a national Call-In Day of Action Today, January 12th, and we need supporters like you to participate by using 1Sky’s easy call-in tool to make a call to Senator Landrieu.Can you sign up today to make a call for our coast?Register at www.1sky.org/calls.Making the call is easy and will only take a few minutes.
