| Facts And Circumstances Test | I. FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCESTHE ALLIANCE WAS FOUNDED IN 2005 BY AL GORE, FORMER U.S. VICE PRESIDENT AND NOBEL PEACE PRIZE LAUREATE, AS A UNIQUE SINGLE-PURPOSE ORGANIZATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF IGNITING PUBLIC ACTION TO SOLVE THE CLIMATE CRISIS. SINCE THAT TIME, THE ALLIANCE HAS CONTINUED TO GROW AND ACCEPT THE CLEAR CHALLENGE TO RECRUIT A CRITICAL MASS OF CITIZENS FROM AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF PEOPLE AROUND THE GLOBE WHO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF THE CLIMATE CRISIS AND TRANSFORM THEM INTO ADVOCATES WHO DEMAND URGENT ACTION TO SOLVE THE CRISIS AND SEIZE THE EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES IT PRESENTS FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE WITH PEACE AND PROSPERITY. ITS MISSION IS TO CATALYZE A GLOBAL SOLUTION TO THE CLIMATE CRISIS BY MAKING URGENT ACTION A NECESSITY ACROSS EVERY LEVEL OF SOCIETY.THE ALLIANCE STRIVES TO BE A STORYTELLER OF CLIMATE CHANGE BY CONNECTING LIVELY SOCIAL MEDIA OUTREACH WITH ENGAGING BLOGS, WEBINARS, CHATS, AND OTHER CONTENT TO TRANSLATE ABSTRACT SCIENCE INTO DAILY REALITIES AND MAKE CLIMATE MATTER TO COMMUNITIES AROUND THE PLANET. AS PEOPLE COME TO UNDERSTAND WHAT CLIMATE CHANGE MEANS FOR THEM, THEY WANT TO TAKE ACTION. AND BY CREATING GRAPHICS, POSTS, AND OTHER MEDIA, THAT ALLIANCE SUPPORTERS CAN EASILY ADAPT AND SHARE WITH THEIR NETWORKS, ONLINE AUDIENCES ARE TRANSFORMED INTO OFFLINE ACTIVISTS EVERYWHERE, BUILDING A POWERFUL MOVEMENT FOR CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. OUR WEBSITE IS HTTPS://WWW.CLIMATEREALITYPROJECT.ORGFOR THE YEAR 2015, THE ALLIANCE FOR CLIMATE PROTECTION, DBA THE CLIMATE REALITY PROJECT, DOES NOT MEET THE SAFE HARBOR TEST FOR PUBLIC SUPPORT (33 1/3%), HOWEVER, IN ALL WAYS THE ORGANIZATION ACTS AS A PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION. THE CLIMATE CRISIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW ISSUE THAT REQUIRES EXTENSIVE INFORMATION AND EDUCATION OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC. THERE HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT EFFORT EXPENDED IN RECENT YEARS TO EXPAND OUR SUPPORT BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC, HOWEVER MUCH OF OUR TARGET AUDIENCE, ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG, DO NOT HAVE SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL RESOURCES. NONETHELESS, WE RECEIVED OVER 2,350 INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS IN 2015. WE BELIEVE THAT THE FOLLOWING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES SUPPORT THE CONTINUANCE OF THE ORGANIZATION AS A PUBLIC CHARITY.OUR WORK AS A PUBLICALLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION IN 2015:THE CLIMATE REALITY LEADERSHIP CORPSAFTER NEARLY A DECADE AFTER OUR FOUNDING, OVER 9,100 TRAINED LEADERS ARE MOBILIZING COMMUNITIES FOR CLIMATE SOLUTIONS, SHAPING PUBLIC OPINION, AND DRIVING CHANGE IN COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD. IN 2015, WE: - HELD FOUR MAJOR THREE-DAY CLIMATE REALITY LEADERSHIP CORPS TRAININGS: NEW DELHI, INDIA; TORONTO, CANADA; CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA AND MIAMI, FLORIDA. - TRAINED 2,054 NEW CLIMATE REALITY LEADERSTHE RESULT? - CLIMATE REALITY LEADERS MADE OVER 2,500 PRESENTATIONS ON CLIMATE CHANGE AND SOLUTIONS IN 2015 - PRESENTATIONS REACHED OVER 235,000 AUDIENCE MEMBERS IN 64 COUNTRIES - CLIMATE REALITY LEADERS UNDERTOOK OVER 4,600 OTHER ACTS OF LEADERSHIP REACHING INFLUENCERS ONLINE, IN THE MEDIA, AND IN PERSON.24 HOURS AND LIVE EARTH: THE WORLD IS WATCHING SINCE 2011, CLIMATE REALITY'S LIVE BROADCAST EVENT, 24 HOURS OF REALITY, HAS SERVED AS A RALLYING POINT FOR THE CLIMATE COMMUNITY, LEVERAGING THE MEDIA PROFILE OF VICE PRESIDENT GORE AND A CAST OF CULTURAL ICONS, INFLUENTIAL POLICYMAKERS, AND THOUGHT LEADERS TO BRING WORLDWIDE ATTENTION TO THE THREAT OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND CATALYZE ACTION FOR SOLUTIONS ACROSS CONTINENTS. WITH COP 21 ON THE HORIZON, WE TIMED THE 2015 BROADCAST TO COME TWO WEEKS BEFORE TALKS BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 13-14 AND BRING MILLIONS TOGETHER TO CALL FOR A STRONG AGREEMENT, ENSURING MAXIMUM VISIBILITY FOR THE EVENT AND PRESSURE ON NEGOTIATORS. AND TO BRING THE GLOBAL MUSICAL COMMUNITY INTO THE EVENT AND BUILD BUZZ AND ATTENTION, WE PARTNERED WITH LEGENDARY CONCERT PRODUCERS LIVE EARTH. THE RESULT WAS 24 HOURS OF REALITY AND LIVE EARTH: THE WORLD IS WATCHING, A DAY OF MUSIC AND ACTION AROUND THE PLANET. WE DESIGNED THE PROGRAM TO BEGIN IN OUR HOST BASE IN PARIS BEFORE TRAVELING AROUND THE WORLD WITH SEGMENTS BROADCAST LIVE FROM STUDIOS IN CAPE TOWN, RIO DE JANEIRO, CALGARY, MIAMI, DELHI, SYDNEY, AND BEIJING. FOR 24 HOURS, WE PLANNED TO FEATURE STORIES OF LOCAL CLIMATE ACTION, CONCERT PERFORMANCES BY MARQUEE NAMES FROM ELTON JOHN TO MUMFORD AND SONS, AND DISCUSSIONS WITH POLITICAL LEADERS AND INFLUENCERS FROM FRENCH PRESIDENT FRAN OIS HOLLANDE TO RYAN REYNOLDS. ALL COMBINING TO RAISE ANTICIPATION FOR COP 21 TO A FEVER PITCH WHILE GIVING THE MILLIONS WATCHING A WAY TO HELP SHAPE NEGOTIATIONS BY ADDING THEIR NAMES TO THE ROAD TO PARIS PETITION. ALONG WITH STUDIO DISCUSSIONS, STORIES, AND MUSICAL PERFORMANCES, A DYNAMIC ONLINE PROGRAM GAVE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE A WAY TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION AND TAKE THE CONVERSATION ON CLIMATE SOLUTIONS FORWARD THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA. IN ADDITION, WE BROUGHT TOGETHER A TRULY GLOBAL GROUP OF MEDIA PARTNERS TO STREAM, BROADCAST, AND DISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM TO AUDIENCES EVERYWHERE, OPENING THE DOOR FOR THE BIGGEST 24 HOURS OF REALITY YET. THIS WAS OUR PLAN. THEN, FOUR HOURS INTO THE WORLD IS WATCHING, TRAGEDY STRUCK AS TERRORISTS ATTACKED OUR HOST CITY OF PARIS, AND THE ONLY APPROPRIATE COURSE OF ACTION WAS TO SUSPEND THE PROGRAM OUT OF SOLIDARITY WITH THE CITY AND FRANCE AS A NATION.WE JOINED THE WORLD IN MOURNING THE ATTACKS ON PARIS AND IN THE WEEKS THAT FOLLOWED, CREATED A TWO-HOUR SPECIAL VERSION OF THE WORLD IS WATCHING THAT BROUGHT THE MESSAGE OF HOPE AND CALL FOR ACTION TO OVER 100 MILLION PEOPLE THROUGH OUR INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION PARTNERS. THE RESULT?-LIVE BROADCAST: 10 MILLION VIEWS-TWO-HOUR SPECIAL: 100 MILLION VIEWS IN OVER 75 COUNTRIES-TWITTER: BROADCAST HASHTAG #WHYIMWATCHING: 30K TWEETS AND 52.8 MILLION REACH -TWITTER: BROADCAST HASHTAG #24HOURSOFREALITY: 29K TWEETS AND 91.6 MILLION REACH -FACEBOOK: 67K ENGAGED USERS WITH REACH OF 2 MILLIONTHE ROAD TO PARIS: BUILDING MOMENTUM FOR A GLOBAL COMMITMENT TO CLIMATE ACTIONWE LAUNCHED THE GLOBAL ROAD TO PARIS CAMPAIGN WITH A TWO-PART STRATEGY FOR SEIZING THE MOMENT AND SUPPORTING THE PARIS COP 21 NEGOTIATIONS:1. RAISE AWARENESS OF THE HISTORIC OPPORTUNITY COP 21 PRESENTED AND BUILD PUBLIC DEMAND FOR A LANDMARK CLIMATE AGREEMENT ON A GLOBAL SCALE; AND2. BUILD CONCERTED PRESSURE ON POLICYMAKERS IN EIGHT PIVOTAL NATIONS IDENTIFIED BY THE UN - AUSTRALIA, BRAZIL, CANADA, CHINA, INDIA, SOUTH AFRICA, THE PHILIPPINES, AND THE US - TO MAKE AMBITIOUS COMMITMENTS TO CARBON REDUCTION, SENDING A SIGNAL TO OTHER LEADERS AND TRIGGERING A DOMINO EFFECT LEADING TO A STRONG CLIMATE AGREEMENT.FOR THIS STRATEGY TO WORK, THERE HAD TO BE A WAY FOR CITIZENS WORLDWIDE TO JOIN THE CAMPAIGN AND A WAY TO EFFECTIVELY TURN DEMAND FOR ACTION INTO REAL PRESSURE ON WORLD LEADERS. AND IT HAD TO BE A WAY OPEN TO ANYONE, ANYWHERE, TRANSLATING EASILY ACROSS LINES OF CULTURE AND LANGUAGE.OUR SOLUTION WAS TO CREATE A GLOBAL PETITION TO WORLD LEADERS HEADING TO PARIS WITH A SINGLE, CLEAR MESSAGE: TAKE CLIMATE ACTION NOW.WITH THE PETITION AS THE ROAD TO PARIS' UNIFIED CALL TO AND TOOL FOR ACTION, WE FOCUSED CLIMATE REALITY'S INITIATIVES AND OUTREACH ACROSS PLATFORMS AND CHANNELS ON SHARING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR CITIZENS TO INFLUENCE COP 21 AND SECURING SIGNATURES. WE SOUGHT TO MAKE THE ROAD TO PARIS PETITION ONE OF THE LARGEST CLIMATE EFFORTS IN HISTORY AND DEMONSTRATE THE EXTRAORDINARY BREADTH AND DEPTH OF SUPPORT FOR ACTION TO NEGOTIATORS IN PARIS.BY WORKING WITH FRIENDS AND PARTNERS THROUGHOUT THE CLIMATE COMMUNITY, WE BROUGHT TOGETHER OVER 2.2 MILLION PEOPLE TO CALL OUT FOR ACTION IN PARIS. THEN, IN THE CLOSING DAYS OF COP 21, FORMER VICE PRESIDENT GORE AND CLIMATE REALITY PRESIDENT KEN BERLIN JOINED THE LEADERS OF AVAAZ, SIERRA CLUB, 350.ORG, GUARDIANS OF THE EARTH, CAN INTERNATIONAL, GREENPEACE, AND MANY OTHER ORGANIZATIONS IN ADDING THE NAMES OF OUR SUPPORTERS TO A GLOBAL GROUP OF 6.2 MILLION DEMANDING ACTION, GENERATING TREMENDOUS PRESSURE ON LEADERS TO REACH A BOLD AGREEMENT AT THE MOMENT WHEN IT WAS NEEDED MOST. THE CLIMATE SPEAKERS NETWORKIN 2015, WE LAUNCHED THE CLIMATE SPEAKERS NETWORK (CSN) TO HELP CREATE A MORE DIVERSE AND INCLUSIVE CLIMATE MOVEMENT BY TRAINING LEADERS FROM THE BUSINESS, AFRICAN AMERICAN, FAITH, LATINO, AND OTHER COMMUNITIES TO ACT AS TRUSTED MESSENGERS ON CLIMATE CHANGE TO THEIR CONSTITUENCIES.TO DO SO, CSN PARTNERS HOLDS TRAININGS WITH GROUPS THAT HAVE ROBUST GRASSROOTS AND GRASSTOPS CONNECTIONS WITH THESE TARGET CONSTITUENCIES BUT LACK THE ORGANIZATIONAL EXPERIENCE OR RESOURCES TO COMMUNICATE ABOUT THE CLIMATE CRISIS, INCLUDING NATIONAL GROUPS LIKE THE NAACP FOCUSED ON ISSUES OTHER THAN CLIMATE AND UNDER-RESOURCED OR EARLY-STAGE GROUPS LIKE THE FRANCISCAN ACTION NETWORK. WHAT DISTINGUISHES THESE EVENTS IS CSN'S COMMITMENT TO CONNECTING THE REALITY OF CLIMATE CHANGE WITH THE DAILY LIVES OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS THROUGH THE POWER OF PERSONAL STORIES - AND TRAINING CLIMATE SPEAKERS TO DO THE SAME. | FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt |

| Explanation | FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES (CONTINUED). IN 2015, CSN HELD 26 TRAINING EVENTS FOR OVER 850 COMMUNITY LEADERS, HELPING ENGAGE INDIVIDUALS AND CONSTITUENCIES LONG OVERLOOKED BY TRADITIONAL GREEN GROUPS AT A TIME WHEN THEIR VOICES WERE URGENTLY NEEDED IN THE LEAD UP TO PARIS. KNOW TOMORROW IF THERE'S ANY SINGLE CONSTITUENCY WITH MORE AT STAKE IN A FUTURE SHAPED BY CLIMATE CHANGE, IT'S THE MILLENNIAL GENERATION. AND IF THERE'S ANY SINGLE CONSTITUENCY WITH THE DRIVE AND DETERMINATION TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, IT'S THE MILLENNIAL GENERATION. IN 2015, WE PARTNERED WITH COOL GLOBES FOUNDER WENDY ABRAMS TO LAUNCH KNOW TOMORROW, A STUDENT-LED CAMPAIGN IN THE US TO ENGAGE AND ACTIVATE MILLENNIALS AS A POLITICAL FORCE FOR CLIMATE ACTION IN THE LEAD UP TO COP 21. THE CAMPAIGN AIMED TO DRAW ON THE NATURAL ENERGY AND CREATIVITY OF MILLENNIALS AND TURN THEIR NATIVE PASSION INTO SUSTAINED PRESSURE ON PRESIDENT OBAMA TO MAKE AMBITIOUS COMMITMENTS TO EMISSIONS REDUCTION IN PARIS. KNOW TOMORROW ORGANIZERS SPENT 14 WEEKS WORKING ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES IN CRITICAL STATES DEVELOPING HOME CAMPAIGN BRANCHES ON EACH, EDUCATING STUDENTS ABOUT THE CLEAN POWER PLAN AND COP 21, CULTIVATING YOUNG LEADERS, AND SECURING OVER 45,000 PETITION SIGNATURES FOR THE ROAD TO PARIS PETITION. THE CAMPAIGN LED UP TO A NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION ON 60 CAMPUSES ON OCTOBER 2, WITH THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS TURNING UP TO SPEAK UP FOR BOLD ACTION IN PARIS, DRAWING WIDESPREAD MEDIA ATTENTION AND ATTRACTING THE NOTICE OF EVEN THE WHITE HOUSE, WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA WRITING TO THANK STUDENT LEADERS FOR THEIR EFFORTS. CLIMATE REALITY SUBSEQUENTLY ATTENDED THE AMERICAN CAMPUSES ACT ON CLIMATE EVENT AT THE WHITE HOUSE ON NOVEMBER 19TH, 2015 WITH A DELEGATION OF STUDENTS, WHERE EPA ADMINISTRATOR MCCARTHY PRAISED CLIMATE REALITY'S EFFORTS TO STUDENT LEADERS, SAYING "YOU'RE THE REASON I'LL BE DANCING OUT OF THE ROOM." I AM PRO SNOW FOR YEARS, OUR SIGNATURE I AM PRO SNOW (IAPS) HAS UNITED WINTER SPORTS ATHLETES FROM OLYMPIC CHAMPION SKIERS TO BUNNY SLOPE BEGINNERS IN CALLING FOR ACTION TO STOP CLIMATE CHANGE AND PROTECT THE SEASON THEY LOVE MOST.
