sunday 4/30/2017 CALL TO ACTIVISM FOR DEMOCRACY!
trump has assaulted the environment.
tell congress: protect earth or lose your job.
"This 100th day of the Trump administration drew tens of thousands of demonstrators to the nation’s capital — this time for what was called the People’s Climate March. The march began on Capitol Hill and made its way along Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House — demonstrators protesting Trump administration environmental policies.
Chief among them, dismantling president Obama’s Clean Power Plan, which limited carbon dioxide emissions from burning coal to produce electricity.
The marchers also oppose President Trump’s desire to withdraw from the 2015 Paris climate change accord, which committed the U.S. and 194 other nations to reduce emissions that cause global warming by 25 percent by the year 2025." (PBS).

environment SCRIPT
Hello, my name is (YOUR NAME) and I am calling today in support of the thousands of concerned citizens who marched in Washington for the Climate March. I am weary at the direction our government is going in when it comes to our impact on the environment.
The Trump Administration’s budget proposal would cut the EPA by almost a third — more than any other agency, even though its budget is tiny. Out of every $10 the federal government spends, only two cents go to the EPA. These cuts don’t really save money. They’re part an ideological crusade that the public doesn’t support.
EPA head Scott Pruitt is now trying to gut many of the same the rules and safeguards that protect us from the amount of arsenic and acid gases power plants can emit, reduce smog that causes respiratory problems and cut carbon pollution that causes climate change. For our future, and for our children's future, please continue to legislate strong environmental measures and stand up to an assault on the environment by the Trump Administration.
