12. Please call your Senator and Congressman now!
And tomorrow!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!

And keep calling and begging them to do the right thing.

Call them until you're blue in the face even though chances are slim to none that it will have any effect let alone a lasting effect.

And while you're calling and sitting on hold you might ask yourself why your representative has to prodded and begged and threatened with a voter revolt just to get them to do what's right for the environment and the country.
