Dear
If you're like me, you've been inspired by the dedication and talent of Team USA during the Winter Olympics. That's why I'm excited that 3 time Olympian and Stanley Cup winner Mike Richter is joining the 72 hour Call in for Clean American Power.
Check out Mike's letter for inspiration, then call your senators and help change our energy future.
- Sarah Hodgdon, Sierra Club Conservation Director
Fellow Sierra Club Supporters,
As a hockey goalie who loves winter sports, it's hard to think that climate change may deny my children and others the winters I have enjoyed.
Harder still is to see the damage climate disruption brings to our health, to the economy, to national security, to our moral standing and to our quality of life.
This is why I am joining the Sierra Club and dozens of organizations across the country for a 72 Hour Call in for Clean American Power.
I'm calling my senators because I want my three sons to benefit from a lifetime of winter sports, to graduate in a country that continues to be a world leader in industry and innovation, especially when it comes to clean energy, and to protect them from the reliance on foreign oil that threatens our national security.
And I'm calling my senators because if we don't act now, it may be too late.
I'm making the call for clean energy -- will you join me?
For 3 days, we will flood the Senate with calls for strong, clean energy and climate legislation that will build a clean energy economy to create jobs, make our country more secure by reducing our dependence on foreign oil, and fight global warming.
Our clean energy future is on the line, and we need you on the team to win.
Thanks for all that you do.
Mike Richter
Sierra Club Member, Olympian, Hockey Champion, and Father
