            California is phasing out gas cars. Ask New York and Illinois to 
follow suit to save our planet!

                  Cars are some of the largest contributors to pollution and 
greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. and around the world. Every year, cars 
and trucks together create approximately 20% of all emissions in the U.S. - 
emissions which then, in turn, accumulate to cause climate change. That's 
why it's so exciting that California, the largest economic powerhouse in the 
U.S. and the fifth-largest economy in the world, has now banned the sale of 
gas-only vehicles! By 2035, all cars purchased in California must be 
zero-emission.

                  The climate crisis has become undeniable. From raging 
wildfires all along the entirety of the West Coast, to poisonous 
unbreathable air, to record-breaking summer temperatures, to rapidly melting 
polar ice caps, climate change is causing rampant destruction everywhere. We 
don't have much time to reverse this trend. Every year, the situation will 
get worse - and the only recourse we have is massive, direct government 
action. That's why we're calling on New York and Illinois, two of the other 
largest economies in the nation, to follow California's lead. Tell lawmakers 
in Illinois and New York to ban the sale of all emissions-producing vehicles 
and require new cars to be emission-free!

                  Thank you for all that you do,

                         Miranda B.

                  P.S. By banning gas-only cars, California hopes to cut 
transportation-related emissions by 35 percent. It's time for New York and 
Illinois to enact the same ban!
