Tell President Obama: It's time to lead on climate.

Dear Friend,

Six months ago, the Obama Administration was set to approve one of the
single most environmentally disastrous fossil fuel projects imaginable.

Today, it's dead.

But President Obama didn't reject the Keystone XL pipeline because he
wanted to. Or because he thought it was the right thing to do. Or because
he thought it would help his reelection campaign. He rejected it because
our activism made him do it.

But because the President rejected the pipeline on the narrow technicality
of the Republicans' 60 day timeline, in no way has he set down a clear
marker against the pipeline or the carbon bomb that burning Canadian tar
sands oil in China represents.

The time to lead us away from dirty fuels and prevent escalating global
catastrophes from climate change is here. And President Obama still can.

Tell President Obama: It's time to lead on climate. Make the case in your
State of the Union Address. Sign the petition here:
