Why we are 350: Scientists overwhelmingly agree that 350ppm CO2 is the upper limit to sustain life as humans have lived it. For more than 800,000 years atmospheric CO2 varied between roughly 180 to 280ppm ([link removed]) .
Our Earth passed 350ppm CO2 during 1988!
Mauna Loa Observatory ([link removed]) - We are now in the 420 - 425ppm range!

The season’s first heatwave is already baking the south-west with triple-digit temperatures as firefighters in Phoenix ([link removed]) – America’s hottest big city – employ new tactics in hopes of saving more lives in a county that saw 645 heat-related deaths last year.
We're paying activists under age 30 up to $35 to encourage their unregistered friends to register ([link removed]) .

Why are we focusing on GenZ?
* 4 million turn 18 every year so 16 million GenZ adults became eligible to vote since Biden beat Trump in 2020
* GenZ registration is lower than previous generations because Covid interrupted many registration drives
* GenZ is the most progressive generation in history - especially young women whose lives have been transformed by Republican abortion bans
* When they register, GenZ votes at the same rate as older voters
When GenZ activists sign up ([link removed]) , we teach them how to find their unregistered friends with SwipeBlue
([link removed]) .
Then we help them send a friendly text to check their registration - and register if needed.
When their friends click on democracy.us ([link removed]) they can instantly check their registration by simply typing their phone number and year of birth.
If their friend isn't registered, we link them to their state's registration website.
