Global warming in brief

Global warming is the one of the most profound threats of our time. From dangerous heat waves and shrinking snowpack to extreme drought and increased wildfires, the dangers of global warming are cause for immediate action.

The good news is that the solutions to reduce global warming pollution are at our fingertips: more energy efficient homes and businesses, cars that go farther on a gallon of gas, and renewable energy like wind, solar and biomass. Plus, these solutions will also reduce our dependence on oil, save consumers money, create jobs, and reduce air pollution.
