3/29/16 - this Blog is no longer active

Thank you for checking into my Great March for Climate Action blog.  Unfortunately this blog was hacked sometime last year while it was idle, and I have decided to discontinue using it.  I will send you an email notice or you can notify me for the address to my new blog which will begin 3/29/16. The sole purpose of the blog is to share some of my challenges and adventures as a Climate Warrior Activist.  Onward!

For the Earth,

Democracy Spring March

Dear Friends and Family,

I am resurrecting the blog I used while walking across America in 2014 with the Great March for Climate Action.  Although the urgent climate crisis is still at the heart of my passionate activist life, this time I will be marching from Philadelphia to DC followed by sit-ins at the Capitol to raise awareness and demand that our legislators act now to restore the democratic process to "We the People."  

The 10 day, 140 mile walk is focused on 3 huge problems that are blocking progress on all the injustices (social, economic and climate) we have to solve. We must:

- Reverse the Supreme Court's Citizen's United that gave corporations the same rights as people and made money into free speech;

- Restore voter rights that have been systematically removed;

- Get big money out of our elections through massive campaign finance reform.

I am very grateful to those of you who are supporting my participation with Democracy Spring.org.  And I will use this blog to post my experiences along the journey. 

For the Earth,

Miriam

The Great March for Climate Action has just successfully completed our walk across America. We spoke to thousands of people along the way and witnessed the increasingly devastating effects of our climate crisis for ourselves. The callousness of the fossil fuel industry is unimaginable - unless you see and hear it for yourself . IT IS TIME TO STOP GIVING TAX MONEY TO THE INDUSTRY THAT IS DESTROYING OUR PLANET!!

I am writing to urge you to extend the renewable energy production tax credit (PTC) and investment tax credit (ITC) before the end of the year. 

If you let these credits expire, we risk repeating what happened last year, when America lost a devastating 92% of wind power's growth and 30,000 wind jobs.

If you extend these credits before the end of the year, wind power is poised to provide more clean energy to Americans than ever before.  Wind power has delivered a third of all new generating capacity over the past five years, and a record amount of new projects are under construction.

I urge you to extend the PTC and ITC through 2015, so that we can build upon this progress.  Our families' health and thousands of jobs depend on you and your colleagues seeing this through. 

Thank you for your consideration.
