Over the weekend, we held an AID Midwest Global Leaders Summit at Northwestern University with around 150 students and young professionals. Among the great things that came up at the Chicago event was the Stop Global Warming "Virtual March" on Washington. I just signed onto the campaign myself and I urge you to the do same -- you can join as my friend on the following page: http://www.stopglobalwarming.org/campaigns/sgw/impact/c6af0aa46cc42d28762ac1adbb7a3d83. Or click on this link.

In our rapidly changing and increasingly interdependent world, it has never been so important for Americans to join together in a movement against environmental degredation. Global warming and other connected environmental issues affect not only our health and well being, but also our national security. There's never been a better time to join the campaign to protect the earth!

Well said, Sarah! Thank you for your commitment and leadership with this very important issue.

It's exciting to see an emerging youth coalition that is fighting for this cause and urging everyone from local community members to car manufacturers to get involved and redirect ourselves onto a more sustainable path. Here are a few examples of youth activism:
