Forget about private email servers, Benghazi, and especially Ken Bone. November 8th is officially behind us, but a strong and healthy future for our environment is still a long way away. Donald Trump, our President-elect (like it or not), is now our Earth’s biggest hurdle. Despite the fact that many of his own properties are vulnerable to rising sea levels, Trump has pledge that in his first 100 days in office he will:

• Cancel the Paris Agreement, the recently adopted global deal to curb climate change
• Dismantle the EPA, the public’s and nature’s last line of defense and accountability
• Bring defunct coal-fired power plants back online

Climate scientists across the world say that policies like these would create lasting harm to everything from biodiversity to food.

But, there’s hope!

Because even a megalomaniac like Trump can’t rescind a rule simply with the stroke of a red pen. We’re a community that’s 51,376 strong, and we refuse to be complacent during this truly pivotal time for the environment.

Here’s what you can do today:

• There’s no better way to keep climate change a trending topic than continuing to talk about it with friends, family, and coworkers.
• Take matters into your own hands by supporting the best carbon busting projects in the world that verifiably reducing greenhouse gas emissions with Cool Effect.

And here’s something to think about for tomorrow:

• Take the time to learn and plan for the 2018 mid-term elections. Let’s put climate conscious representatives back in the House, take back Congress, and fortify state legislatures.

Never forget, we’re still here and Mother Nature needs us now more than ever! Be a part of the climate change solution.

See you on the front-lines,
