Tomorrow marks a critical day in Congress: the day global warming legislation is introduced. But there's nuclear fallout to an otherwise good bill - that's right, instead of setting strong limits on global warming pollution from power plants, Senator McCain plans to add massive subsidies for new nuclear power plants.

Apparently Senator McCain doesn't understand the risks. Nuclear plants are sitting ducks for terrorist attacks and there is no safe way to store nuclear waste. We need your help today to stop the Senate from nuking this landmark global warming bill.

TAKE ACTION NOW!

Limiting our global warming pollution combined with strong incentives for renewable sources and energy efficiency, is the real solution to meet our energy needs.

Please take action now and tell your Senators to "knock the nukes" out of the McCain Lieberman Climate Stewardship Act. It is vitally important that we stop the nuclear industry from poisoning the most important piece of global warming legislation being debated in Congress today.
