Joseph --

Right now, the EPA is collecting public comments about President Obama's Clean Power Plan.

Add your name to make sure your voice is part of it -- and we'll make sure the EPA gets it.

The New York Times called this plan the "strongest action ever taken by an American president to tackle climate change." It will reduce carbon pollution from power plants 30 percent by 2030.

That's a HUGE deal.

Of course, that means it's also under attack from pretty much every polluter and climate change denier you can imagine.

The status quo works pretty well for them, after all.

It shouldn't surprise anyone that groups like the Koch brothers are going all out, spending millions to try to tear down the President's plan. They recently organized rallies around the EPA's public hearings to try to drown out the voices of ordinary Americans who support getting serious on this issue.

There's no telling what they have left up their sleeve.

We're fighting back the best way we know how -- showing just how many Americans support the President's Clean Power Plan.

The EPA's public comment period is a huge way to do just that.

Every single name makes a difference -- make sure yours is part of it:

Dear Lindsay Siler:
 I would add my name if Barack Obama's plan was updated for 2020. The fact his plan is for the year 2030, which is so far away it makes me believe this is just another stalling tactic for a government filled with Republicans and Democrats controlled by the fossil fuel industry. What I can say is this: the Canadian federal government under prime minister Stephen Harper is losing power and his U.S. and multi-national friends who have invested heavily in the Tar Sands and Oil Pipeline projects are universally hated. They will be losing their investments. The next Canadian election will shift the balance of power away from the Fossil Fuel Industry and no amount of money is going to stop this process. What is sad and worse is that it is almost too late to slow down global warming. Signed: Joseph Raglione.
