If greenhouse gas emissions and average global temperature continue to rise, the ramifications of climate change will become increasingly severe over time, leaving children to cope with a rapidly changing climate. We must stop climate change in its tracks and protect children and future generations from the worst effects of climate change.

We, the Rochester Youth Climate Leaders, are working to protect our climate and our future. We advocate for common sense climate legislation across all levels of government, but we need your help!

Please sign this petition asking the Monroe County government to create and implement a Climate Action Plan - a detailed program of greenhouse gas emissions reductions that could transform Monroe County into a leader of sustainability policy.
