Global Warming Activist Tool Kit

We’ve never faced an environmental threat quite like global warming.  Fortunately the issue is finally getting the public attention it deserves.  Whether it’s a report on the evening news, a hearing in the capitol, or a conversation around the kitchen-table, people everywhere are talking about climate change.

However, as we all know, just talking about the threat of global warming -- or any environmental problem -- isn’t enough.  What we need is action, from individuals and also from our elected officials.  The only way that will happen is if we join together to show our leaders that the public supports bold solutions that solve the problem.

This toolkit offers a sampling of activities that an individual can act upon to make a real difference in Environment California’s work on global warming.  Click on each action to find more details, or download the full toolkit by clicking on the link in the right sidebar.
