Tell Ford and GM to Build More Efficient Cars

Action Text:
If American cars and trucks were a country, they'd be the fifth largest global warming polluters in the world – after the United States, China, Russia, and Japan. According to a recent report from Environmental Defense, Ford and GM cars on the road today account for more than half of all US automotive global warming emissions. Neither company is working to improve its record quickly enough, even though existing technologies could make a real difference now.

Join with us in asking Ford and GM to reduce the impact of their cars and trucks on global warming through improved gas mileage and the increased production of hybrid vehicles.

Exxon needs to know that a broad array of their stakeholders, including consumers, are deeply concerned about the company’s impact on global warming, and outraged that ExxonMobil continues to shirk its responsibilities. Act today.
