R.E.M. SUPPORTS ENVIRONMENT AMERICA

During the North American tour, staff for Environment America, a federal of state environmental groups (and the new home for U.S. PIRG’s environmental work), will be enlisting the help of concertgoers for their Clean Energy and Green Economy campaign. Helping to solve this country’s energy problems and building the clean energy economy can’t wait until the next president. Congress and the current administration must take the opportunity to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, decrease our reliance on dirty fossil fuels and transform our economy right now. Environment America is focused on clean energy solutions that will help solve America’s energy problems while giving a boost to the economy and taking a bite out of our global warming problem. Over the next three months, the campaign will speak directly with more than one million citizens in 90 congressional districts about putting clean energy technologies to work to make the nation cleaner and more energy independent.
