Hi friend --
Washington Post: “President-elect Joe Biden is poised to embed action on climate change across the breadth of the federal government, from the departments of Agriculture to Treasury to State -- expanding it beyond environmental agencies to speed U.S. efforts to mitigate global warming and to acknowledge that the problem touches many aspects of American life.”
This is huge. As the Trump administration has been defined by glorifying anti-science rhetoric and destroying the U.S.’s reputation as a leader on environmental policy, it is a welcome -- and imperative -- change that we’re prioritizing climate action.
And the best part? As WaPo further reports: “The far-reaching strategy is aimed at making significant cuts in greenhouse gas emissions even without congressional action, by maximizing executive authority.”
Listen: We back Biden. And it’s vital that we send a message to our lawmakers that any continued disregard of science will not be tolerated. Climate change is a real and pressing threat, one that needs to be addressed NOW -- not rolled back or swept to the side. Add your voice to ours and tell us:
Do you support taking action against climate change?
