BT & Grafiti (leama and James Davis) support global warming campaign

NWF is Turning the Tables on Global Warming


Purpose/Audience:
To engage, empower, and enlist young voters (age 18-30) in the movement to confront global warming.

Event (Tactic):
Leverage the reach, power, and passion of electronic music artists through a series of Turn the Tables events hosted by top DJs at premier nightclubs in key American cities�starting in Washington, DC on December 8.

Goal:
Mobilize young, urban Americans to pressure Congress into passing strong legislation that includes reducing global warming pollution by 2% a year for the next 40 years.

Talking Points:

1. About the Campaign

The world�s most vulnerable people and wildlife will be most impacted by global warming.

Global warming isn�t fair.

Those least-equipped to cope with global warming�s scientifically-predicted impacts�which include severe droughts, wild fires, floods, severe weather, and rising sea-levels�will suffer the most. And wildlife species least able to adapt to these environmental shifts face increasing battles for survival.

But there�s hope. The next generation of American voters can turn this around.

Americans comprise just 5% of the world�s population, yet produce 25% of the world�s global warming pollution.

Scientists tell us we need to set a target of reducing global warming pollution by 80% by 2050 to prevent catastrophic climate change.

We can achieve that goal by reducing global warming pollution by 2% each year.

We are calling on Congress to pass legislation with four key elements. It must:

� Reduce U.S. global warming pollution by 2% each year to achieve an 80% reduction in emissions by 2050.

� Help wildlife adapt to changes in habitat and climate.

� Help poor communities to cope with global warming impacts - such as severe weather, flooding, drought - both at home and abroad.

� Create growth opportunities and green jobs as our economy shifts to new energy sources and technology.
