Our regular readers will remember [this recent post](https://blogs.edf.org/climate411/2010/03/02/72-hours-thousands-of-calls/) about the launch of our **72 Hours for Clean American Power** calling campaign. EDF joined forces with 10 fellow environmental organizations to flood the Senate with calls demanding action on climate change legislation.

We’re happy to say the campaign was a big success. An amazing **300,000 of you called our Senate hotline** during those 72-hours.

We can’t thank you enough for your efforts. You made sure that the Senate got your message: America needs a comprehensive climate and clean energy bill, and we need it now.

Lots of you have told us that you’d like to do even more. Keep in mind that our [100,000 letter campaign](https://blogs.edf.org/climate411/2010/02/23/help-edaf-get-100000-letters-for-climate-action/) is still going on. You can make sure your Senators get the same message in writing — that a climate and clean energy bill should be a national priority.
