Description: Global warming confronts policymakers with two urgent and non-severable challenges: capping and reducing the heat-trapping greenhouse gas emissions that drive climate change and helping to safeguard wildlife, ecosystems, and the natural resources we all rely on in the face of a warming world. Please join actress Ashley Judd, Discovery Channel’s Animal Planet host Jeff Corwin, a distinguished Honorary Congressional Committee and numerous sponsoring organizations for a Capitol Hill reception to highlight the need to safeguard natural resources from climate change, the most sweeping conservation challenge facing the planet today.
