This is a big one -- not just numerically, but strategically. President Obama said in his inaugural address, "We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations."     
His first big decision should be to reject the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, but he also must take bold action to limit carbon pollution and move beyond coal and natural gas. At this rally, we must apply the pressure that will allow the president to show strong leadership on our climate crisis.
