Power Vote, a national non-partisan effort spearheaded by the Energy Action Coalition is seeking to elevate the issue of climate change in the 2008 election by mobilizing one million young “climate voters.” To do this, the Energy Action Coalition and its more than forty partner organizations are organizing young people across the United States to pledge their vote "for clean and just energy.”  Power Vote is striving to harness the political power of 1 million young voters who want a bold new vision for America’s future, elevate energy and climate issues in this historic election and mobilize grassroots support. They are a strong community of over 100,000 young Americans demanding real solutions to global warming by voting to create a clean energy economy, green jobs for all, and to secure our climate.   To read more about their platform and to sign the pledge, check out their website - http://powervote.org/
