Hello Green Gurus!
Here is a [LINK] to an updated version of the letter, including all the signatories we had as of last Friday - thank you all!
This message is really geared for your firm's social media/communications team, so if you aren’t that person, please share this message with them! With that said, all of you (whether your firm has signed yet or not) are encouraged to post something about this on social media and/or share it with other folks you know in the built-environment space who may be interested in signing the letter!
We now have over 130 signatories of leading AEC industry companies (not just Green Guru companies) who are calling on the Biden-Harris Administration to take proactive steps to address climate change through legislation focused on the built environment. We are currently hoping to gather many more signatories, and we need your help to build momentum and spread the word about this important campaign! Note: We're now opening the letter up to signatories from any organization that sees themselves as working within the built-environment realm, so keep that in mind as you share this information.
To keep this simple, here is our social media/website toolkit for your consideration:
If you want to call on others to join this AEC coalition, here is a [LINK] to the sign-up form (which also includes a link to the latest letter for the Biden-Harris Administration):
