A fable so even children can see what America’s mad king is doing. And don’t deny he is our mad king. Our history, our complacency in the face of growing tyranny and our failing institutions helped create him. Only we, together, can stop his mad destruction.

Picture a small-scale solar system that’s affordable, can be mounted anywhere, and plugs into a standard electrical outlet. Too good to be true? It’s real – and it’s bringing clean energy to renters and people who haven’t been able to get solar before!

Check out this quote from Dr Michael E Mann: "There's nothing worse, as a climate scientist, than seeing your predictions play out... This is the face of climate change. It's not subtle anymore. It's not far off, distant. It's here now." #ClimateActionNow

We stopped the Trump regime from selling our public lands once. But they are not giving up unless we all stay engaged.
