Chances are, if you are on a website about stuffed animals made from recycled plastic, you:
- Love animals;
- Are concerned about the environment;
- Want to leave the world a better place for generations to come;
- All of the above;
If that describes you, the Sustainimals hope you will join them* in casting your ballot (as early as possible if that is an option where you live!), for Joe Biden / Kamala Harris. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been endorsed by The Sierra Club, Scientific American, 350 Action, Environment America Action Fund, BlueGreen Alliance, The League of Conservation Voters, and the Natural Resources Defense Council.
Per NPR, here is a brief overview of where the candidates stand on the environment:
Joe Biden

- Rid the power sector of carbon pollution by 2035
- Net zero carbon emissions by 2050
- $2 Trillion Investment over the next four years in the following areas:

Donald Trump
