This is an opportunity for you to be represented at an important Regional Climate Emergency Mobilization Strategy meeting taking place next Friday, July 26th. Participation at this strategy meeting will allow your elected official to share and reinforce successful climate actions already taken, identify obstacles, and prepare for a larger Regional Climate Emergency Mobilization Summit in the fall. The goal of the strategy meeting is to ensure that the fall Summit responds to the Bay Area’s needs.
We ask Sierra Club members and supporters to please call and ask their mayor, city council member or other elected representative to attend. Sample phone/email script:
Hi (elected official name),

It is aimed at elected officials so that city and county staff can share and reinforce successful climate actions already taken, identify obstacles, and prepare for a larger Regional Climate Emergency Mobilization Summit in the Fall.
