Stop Global Warming/Environmental Issues

No issue reveals more clearly the flaws of the U.S. political-economic system than global warming--the dominance of greed and corporate power over the public good, and the near-sighted focus on the short-term over the welfare of future generations.

The success of Al Gore's documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," shows that many Americans are ready to act to save the planet and to protect our remaining wild places from further degradation in the pursuit of oil. PDA calls on the Democratic majority in Congress to lead boldly in reducing our country's oil dependence and use of fossil fuels, while investing in public transportation, energy conservation technologies and alternative energy development. (Such investments create good-paying jobs.)
