Climate Change Videos
We are excited to share some climate videos with you. There are so many good ones out there, but we are just highlighting three at the moment. Feel free to contact us a RiseUpForCleanEnergy.com if you have a favorite video that you would like us to share.
Electricity Generation, Climate Change, And You.
This video, created by the RiseUpForCleanEnergy team, highlights the urgent need for our state to transition rapidly to clean energy. It discusses how our elected leaders are falling short in driving progress and outlines how we can unite to push for the critical actions recommended by the global scientific community
The Tipping Points of Climate Change - and Where We Stand
Johan Rockström is an internationally recognized scientist on global sustainability and Earth resilience. In this Ted Talk, delivered in July 2024, he gives an up to date assessment of the abrupt warming that is now occuring, how tipping points are now anticipated to occur at lower levels of warming then previously thought, and how huge the human social costs and economic costs will be if we continue on our current course. Every single elected leader should watch this, and then seek to learn more about what steps they can take to address the climate emergency.
Is Your Power Company Funding Climate Denial?
The short answer is "yes." Power companies across the U.S. are using ratepayer money to undermine climate action. In their mission statements and climate pledges, these utilities brag about transforming the power industry toward a clean energy future, but behind the scenes, they’re hiding behind their lobbying organization—Edison Electric Institute (EEI)—to block climate action and clean energy solutions that will save ratepayers money. This video shows how utilities lobby for company and shareholder profits over people and our planet.
