Tell West Virginia's Senators that it's Time to Act on the Climate!
West Virginia's Senator Manchin is in the news for delaying a major economic package that would include provisions to combat climate change. Climate advocates from across West Virginia are growing increasingly frustrated with Senator Manchin's delay tactics in addressing the urgency of climate change. Read a statement by the West Virginia Climate Alliance.
Here are three things you can do today to help move climate policy forward!
2. Be an in-person advocate. We're looking for advocates to meet with the West Virginia based staff of Senator Manchin and Senator Capito next month. Send us a message at wvrivers@wvrivers.org if you are interested in advocating in person. We'll help you schedule a meeting and prepare you to be a powerful advocate for science-based climate policy.
Check out some examples videos our friends in the WV Climate Alliance recently shared!
3. Take the Climate Pledge and share your story! Take the WV Climate Pledge, and help grow the grassroots movement for climate policy in West Virginia! Then share a video on why you took the Climate Pledge - email your video to mking@wvrivers.org. We'll add it to a gallery on our website and share it on social media.
If you'd like to share it to your socials, tag us @wvrivers on Instagram and Facebook and @OurWVRivers on Twitter. Check out this short video for an example and to see why fellow climate advocates around the state care about this issue!
Take care,
