It is not too late to make Maryland a leader on global warming solutions. Take a moment — right now — to sign a petition to Governor O'Malley asking him to take strong administrative action and make the Global Warming Solutions Act law. Maryland's beaches hang in the balance.

If global warming continues unabated, projected rising sea levels will significantly reshape the region's coastal landscape, threatening waterfowl hunting and recreational saltwater fishing in Virginia and Maryland that contribute roughly $725 million to the region's economy. Seafood lovers take note: Chesapeake Bay waters produce some 500 million pounds of seafood worth billions of dollars each year, including blue crab, rockfish and eastern oyster.

Sign the petition to Governor O'Malley and ask him to take strong action on global warming. Our region's beaches, wildlife, and economy are counting on it.

Thanks for all you do,
