Dear Friends of PSR Philadelphia,

Join PSR in Washington, DC for A Celebration of Visionary Leaders on Thursday, November 9th. Beginning at 6pm, we'll be celebrating the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and PSR Board Member Ira Helfand, MD for his part in making it a reality. Through this Saturday, we're asking for a tax-deductible donation of $100 to attend. After Oct 1, suggested donation is $125. Student tickets are $50; we have some subsidized tickets for students whose budgets are inelastic. We encourage you to come join us in celebration of the chapters that have worked so hard to not only abolish nuclear weapons, but also to eliminate toxics in the environment and stop climate change.

Please also consider showing support of the  OFF Fossil Fuels for a Better Future Act. This act will require that the U.S. make a just transition to 100 percent clean renewable energy by 2035. The OFF Act prioritizes health and embodies our values by:
  • Promoting clean renewable energy sources: solar, wind and geothermal power.
  • Protecting us from accelerating climate change and deadly air pollution. 
  • Making economic and racial justice central to climate mitigation efforts. 
  • Creating tens of thousands of new jobs in renewable energy.
Speak up for health! Ask your congressional representative to help ensure a livable climate by cosponsoring the OFF Fossil Fuels for a Better Future Act.

Thank you for supporting and working with us as we promote social responsibility by protecting health, the environment and communities through education, training, direct service, and advocacy.

Sincerely,
PSR-Philadelphia - Climate Change Fact Series
