John -
The world has seen unprecedented climate destruction over the past year as
wildfires, hurricanes and floods continue to devastate all of our
communities.
And yet, the Biden administration just announced climate targets that
won’t even do the bare minimum to address the climate crisis.
There’s a better solution, John: The Fair Shares Nationally
Determined Contribution framework. It’s a bold, climate justice-driven
target proposed by the climate movement that would slash our climate
emissions, phase out fossil fuels, and have the U.S. pay its fair share to
help other countries do the same.

leaving office.

The Fair Shares proposal would cut emissions by at least 195% below 2005
levels. That would be huge. In contrast, the Biden administration’s new
target would only cut emissions by 60% — not nearly enough to limit global
temperature rise to the 1.5°C goal set forth by the U.N. to prevent
climate chaos.
The Fair Shares proposal would also end fossil fuel expansion and ensure a
just transition toward clean energy. And it would deliver $800 billion in
climate finance, or funding from the wealthy countries most responsible
for the climate crisis to the Global South countries most impacted by it.
The Biden administration’s current climate targets are simply not enough
to limit global warming and prevent climate chaos.
By endorsing the Fair Shares targets, Biden can — for the first time ever
— force the U.S. government to acknowledge the full extent of the climate
action needed to avert the worst climate chaos.

comprehensive Fair Shares climate targets. Your message will help us show
the true power in our movement.

On January 20, a new administration begins, and President Biden’s
opportunity to leave a lasting impact on the climate crisis will vanish.
With his last days in office, he can and must use his power to leave an
enduring legacy in the global fight to address the climate crisis.
Together,
