                        In what friends described as a "deeply fearless act of compassion," 50-year-old Wynn Bruce from Boulder, CO set himself on fire in the plaza of the United States Supreme Court Building to protest our politicians' dangerous refusal to address climate change. The shocking nature of Bruce's death was no mistake -- his actions hauntingly echoed the urgency of the climate crisis staring our politicians in the face. 



                        Climate scientists have been sounding the alarm on climate change for decades, and while we have waited for world leaders to stop dragging their feet, the warming "tipping point" looms ever closer -- degrees of warming from which we cannot come back, which will destroy ecosystems, create even more extreme weather patterns, and make life-sustaining conditions a thing of the past.



                        The latest IPCC report shows that the wealthiest countries in the world, the U.S. included, are responsible for significantly more emissions than less wealthy countries. The U.S. has a responsibility to create more ambitious climate action plans to eliminate emissions and pull more carbon from their atmosphere. U.S. lawmakers must recognize Wynn Bruce's courageous act and honor his memory with similarly courageous climate action. Sign the petition to demand that they save our planet!
                       
                 
           
                       
                 Thank you,
