We have an unprecedented opportunity to put people to work
and address the climate crisis
In 2020 alone, more than 100,000 oil and gas workers have been laid off, accelerating losses in an industry that was already struggling before the global pandemic undercut demand for fossil fuels.
Mike believes we should move quickly to give those workers new jobs -- fighting the climate crisis. They can put their skills to use plugging millions of abandoned oil and gas wells, many of which are leaking methane, a greenhouse gas more than 80 times as potent as CO2. The proposal is a perfect example of how growing the economy and fighting climate change go hand-in-hand. Find out how we can get it done in Mike's latest opinion piece:
