"Mr. Ford, you and your company have a huge stake in keeping this war going and in keeping the oil flowing…To what lengths will companies like yours go to increase your bottom line? Mr. Ford, are you willing to have the blood of more fine young Americans on your hands?" — Cindy Sheehan, in a letter to CEO Bill Ford Jr.,
THE STAKES COULDN'T BE HIGHER
With record gas prices, the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, the Arctic melting faster than ever before, even more deaths in Iraq and the planet on the edge of climatic collapse we can't afford to wait any longer to declare our independence from oil. It's time that we let Ford, the worst polluter in the automobile industry, know they must stop driving this chaos and destruction.

Why Ford?
Our dependence on oil endangers our environment, our health, our economy, and fuels human rights abuses around the world. Automobiles are the single largest consumer of oil in the North America; if we want kick the oil habit, demanding sustainable, petroleum-free transportation is a good place to start. Among automakers, Ford is the worst actor. Ford has the worst fleetwide fuel efficiency and the highest average vehicle greenhouse gas emissions of major U.S. automakers.
This year we are happy to be able to provide grassroots activists with even more trainings and resources than ever before. It couldn't be easier or more important for you to adopt a dealer today.
Two of the things you can do to participate is to adopt-a-dealership and organize a demo or if you are a campus activist you can work on passing a green fleets resolution. To adopt a dealer download a package at Jumpstart Ford: Adopt a Dealer or if you want more info on the green fleets program you can go to Jumpstart Ford: Green Fleets.
