            Teenage climate activists around the world need your help.

            They’re furious with Siemens. The massive engineering company likes to promote itself as green and clean -- but it just decided to help build a giant coal mine in Australia that would kill any chance of saving the planet from climate chaos.

            Greta Thunberg has called for protests and teenagers have been showing up outside Siemens offices across the world. Together we can get engineering giant Siemens to pull support from the mine, and stop it from being built.

            And here's the plan: The Siemens’ shareholder meeting is less than two weeks away. Young climate strikers want to turn it into a PR nightmare and force Siemens to do the right thing -- but first they have to get there. Can you rush funds to hire a fleet of buses to bring school kids to the Siemens shareholder meeting?

            Yes, I can chip in $1 to stop this disastrous coal mine? 

            Australia has been ravaged by deadly fires.

            Every day volunteer firefighters risk their lives -- 32 people have died and over a billion animals including kangaroos and koalas have burned in the flames.

            There is nothing normal about these fires. They are the result of galloping climate change and a government unwilling to tackle it. The scary truth is  we know these fires will only get worse and more frequent until we force governments and corporations to take responsibility and leave fossil fuels in the ground, starting with the Adani mega mine.

            And together we've got a real shot to stop this mine.

            Just imagine: as Siemens shareholders file into the meeting, they’ll be greeted by the chants of hundreds, maybe even thousands of youngsters, asking them to drop the Adani coal mine.

            The press will be there. Photos and video will travel around the world on TV, social media and in newspapers. Siemens has invested in its reputation as a green company -- we can make the cost to Siemens’ reputation outweigh the profit it'd make from the coal mine.

            But the meeting is just a couple of weeks away and we need to start hiring buses now -- can you chip in today to make it happen?
