The Climate and Energy Bill (formally the American Clean Energy and Security Act) may be voted on as soon as Friday in Washington.

This morning, Al Gore wrote:

"Make no mistake, this is the most important environmental vote of this generation. If passed this legislation will put us on the road to actually solving the climate crisis, in addition to building a green economy.

Contact your member of Congress and make sure they vote yes."
