Petition from MoveOn.org

In the next few weeks, Congress could vote to DOUBLE the amount of greenhouse gases America produces from our cars and planes. It sounds crazy, but Congress is rushing through a package that could lock us into liquid coal as our country's new energy source for transportation. For every mile driven, coal-based fuels produce as much as twice as many greenhouse gases as petroleum. That means even a Prius would drive like a Hummer.

The coal industry has been lobbying for this break for years, and many in Congress don't understand the facts. Can you sign on to our petition opposing liquid coal right now—and then please alert your friends?
