Crippling drought. Devastating wildfires. Superstorm Sandy. Climate has come home — and the American people get it.

On Sunday, February 17, thousands of Americans will head to Washington, D.C. to make Forward on Climate the largest climate rally in history. Join this historic event to make your voice heard and help the president start his second term with strong climate action.

From rejecting the toxic Keystone XL tar sands pipeline to firing up our clean energy economy, Barack Obama’s legacy as president will rest squarely on his response, resolve, and leadership in solving the climate crisis. That’s why the Forward On Climate Rally will feature critical action, inspiring speakers, and a march to the president’s doorstep to show him that we can’t afford to wait any longer.
