Hello Karen,

Thank you for your interest in helping Architecture 2030 to spread the work about BYOBlue. Our goal is to reach as many people as possible with this clear message: wear BLUE for Earth Day 2008 as a vote for NO COAL!

BYOBlue / Earth Day 2008
April 19-22
Want to stop global warming? Wear BLUE for Earth Day 2008!
Join millions of people around the world who will be wearing BLUE to signify their vote for NO COAL.


•••••
 
Earth Day 2008 is going to be historic! Architecture 2030, along with numerous other groups around the nation, is calling on everyone to wear BLUE during Earth Day 2008 to signify their vote for No Coal. Events will be happening around the world from April 19th through April 22nd, so…
 
If you're attending the Earth Day event on the National Mall in Washington, DC on April 20th, wear BLUE.
 
If you're attending another Earth Day event, wear BLUE.
 
No matter what you're doing for Earth Day 2008, wear BLUE.
 
A BLUE shirt, top, sweater or jacket…whatever. Just wear BLUE.
 
Then, on April 22, as a culminating action, pick up the phone, call Congress at 202-224-3121 and ask for an immediate 'Moratorium on Coal' - a halt to the construction of any new coal-fired power plants. Through this Call for Climate event, Earth Day hopes to generate over a million phone calls to Congress. Visit Earth Day's website to learn more about this critical event.
 
Your BLUE vote will count. Fifty-nine coal plants were canceled in 2007. That's over a third of the 151 planned. That happened before millions of people joined together to say No Coal.
 
BYOBlue for Earth Day 2008. Be the vote that tips the balance.
