Student Sustainability Leaders: How to Help

Last week, the Student Sustainability Leadership (SSL) Impact program held an action event on campus during lunch. They encouraged their fellow students and teachers to call our House representatives and senators asking them to support bold climate legislation that is supported by the best available science. SSL provided a script and phone numbers for each of the senators and representatives which we have linked here. 

Calling your representatives is a great and easy way to affect change. Representatives track what issues their constituents call about and calling shows them we care about how climate change is rapidly affecting not just our future but our present as well. We hope you will take a moment to call and ask for immediate action on climate change, as many SA students already have.
 
Another important action that you can take to demonstrate your support for immediate climate action is signing this petition. This organization is advocating for a Congressional bill (H.R. 794) which will declare a national climate emergency in the United States.
 
A recent heartbreaking event occurred off the coast of California in Huntington Beach. An oil spill is causing long-term damage to our wildlife and devastating our ecosystems. 
 
24 Hours of Reality is a resource that can continue to provide updates about current climate events, policies, and actions.
