Climate Letter Template

Dear (insert proper title and name here),

I am (insert your name here) and I am asking you to take urgent action on climate change. Our planet and the living things on it do not have time for our leaders to debate about the climate crisis. We need solutions, not more problems, which is what waiting has created. Here is what we need to make our planet livable for the next generation: INSERT YOUR ASK HERE:

Listed above are a few solutions to the climate crisis. It is what we need to ensure that our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, etc. have a planet to live on. We do not want them to look back and wonder what life could have been like if we did not fight the climate crisis head-on. It will be easier to implement the harder solutions now that wait until there is nothing we can do later. I hope you will show up, not just for your constituents, but for the future generations who will live on this planet, and fight the future that I am trying to protect. I am not asking, and I am not demanding, all life on the planet demands that we must take climate change under control. Major change can be done by you, and we are looking for inclusive solutions. Solutions imply that there are problems that we must solve, and these problems are evident to us every day. Life on this planet cannot survive if we don’t protect it, and you have the power to make that a reality. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Name
