Tomorrow is the National Day of Action. 658 events are being held throughout the country to bring awareness to Green Jobs Now. The focus will be on low-income communities, communities of color and indigenous people. "This will send a message to our leaders that, when it comes to creating green jobs for a more sustainable economy, PEOPLE ARE READY!"
The Center for American Progress released a study which demonstrates how an investment of $100 billion over two years would create 2 million new jobs. Just to put things in perspective, the Federal Reserve Bank just used $85 billion of taxpayers' money to bail out AIG.
There is an event happening in every single state. You can find the opportunity to participate closest to you here. If you can't attend an event please sign this petition in support of a clean energy economy.
Have a good weekend!
