Dear Representative McIntyre,
People across the country are making small changes in their lives and doing their part to stop global warming--changing their light bulbs, driving less, and buying more efficient appliances. City and state governments are taking action, too, by investing in renewable energy and cracking down on the worst polluters. But while we act, Congress is doing next to nothing to solve global warming.
To stop global warming, our nation needs to do what science says is necessary: reduce global warming pollution at least 25% below 1990 levels by 2020; and get on a realistic path to the reductions needed to prevent dangerous climate disruption: at least 80% below 1990 levels by 2050. It's possible if we:
1) Use our energy more efficiently.
2) Put a limit on how much global warming pollution gets dumped into the atmosphere.
3) Stop building dirty, dangerous coal and nuclear plants and invest in clean energy like wind and solar instead.

Global warming is a serious problem, that's why I urge you to be a champion on this issue in Congress.
Please take action today by supporting science-based approaches to global warming. Congress can help stop global warming. I'm doing my part. Now it's time for Congress to do its part.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
