Ask friends, family and coworkers to help stop global warming

The Rocky Mountain West has more to lose than most states if we don’t act soon. Colorado could see longer, more-intense fire seasons. Mountain ecosystems may change dramatically, threatening wildlife habitat and mountain foliage. Rising temperatures mean decreased snow pack and water supplies - leaving us with less water for drinking, agriculture, and industry during the dry summer months.

Gov. Bill Ritter can be a leader by setting science-based goals to cut global warming pollution. By setting goals that will achieve real results, we can create a clear path to addressing global warming. Other states such as New Mexico and Arizona have already set hard goals for carbon reduction – the leading contributor to global warming pollution.

Please ask five of your friends, family, or coworkers to email the Governor and ask him to take a stand against global warming.

Message (Feel free to add you own personal comments)	This week, I emailed Gov. Ritter and urged him to take a stand to cut global warming pollution in Colorado. An international panel of scientists released a report saying that the worst effects of global warming in North America will be right here in the Rocky Mountain West, with drought and fires becoming more severe as well as lower stream levels threatening fish and wildlife. Gov. Ritter has been a leader in increasing renewable energy in Colorado, and now he has the chance to take a stand on global warming as well by joining other states in the west – such as New Mexico and Arizona – in setting science-based goals for cutting global warming pollution.
