Unstoppable forest fires, Hurricanes the size of countries, a soon-to-be ice-free Arctic -- our climate is spiraling ever faster, out of control. But in weeks we can score a major win for the planet and hit the breaks on one of the biggest carbon polluters: cars.

Europe’s politicians are weighing rules to make almost all European cars 100% clean by 2040. This is HUGE!! But carmakers are the most powerful industry in Europe and their armies of lobbyists are lining up to gut the plans. Our only shot is to meet industry pressure with people power and show European politicians that people everywhere want clean cars.

Europe gave us the Paris climate deal, but they’ve been unable to stop car pollution from rising. They want to be global climate leaders, and with nearly one-quarter of the world’s cars made in their backyard, this is their chance. Let’s remind them true climate don’t get stuck in traffic.
