1Sky's ad on TV during the debates--we're halfway there!
This is the first post by Bob Lyon, 1Sky's Development Coordinator. -- Luis
In just over 12 hours, concerned climate activists like you have donated over $10,000 of the $20,000 we need to show the 1Sky ad during coverage of tonight's debate. Thanks to all of you who contributed and helped spread the word! The 30-second video created by Nikos Spiridakis, a ten-year-old filmmaker and climate activist, reveals a common fear for all of us: What will our future look like if we don't act now (see embeded video below).
We're already halfway there—the ad will air tonight in selected markets on CNN and MSNBC—but we still need your help. Make a contribution now to help make our voices heard. We're at a critical time when we need to ensure both presidential candidates and the American public understand the importance of climate change. You can help us put climate change at the center of the presidential campaign and move people to demand bold climate action.
