I PLEDGE:
7.7.07
1.To demand that my country
join an international treaty within the next 2 years* that cuts global warming pollution by 90% in developed
countries and by more than half worldwide in time for the next generation to inherit a healthy earth; 
2.To take personal action
to help solve the climate crisis by reducing my own CO2 pollution as much as I can and offsetting the
rest to become "carbon neutral;" 
3.To fight for a moratorium
on the construction of any new generating facility that burns coal without the capacity to safely trap and store
the CO2; 
4.To work for a dramatic
increase in the energy efficiency of my home, workplace, school, place of worship, and means of transportation;

5.To fight for laws and
policies that expand the use of renewable energy sources and reduce dependence on oil and coal; 
6.To plant new trees and
to join with others in preserving and protecting forests; and, 
7.To buy from businesses
and support leaders who share my commitment to solving the climate crisis and building a sustainable, just, and
prosperous world for the 21st century.
