Climate

 Yesterday was Earth Day and it wa marked with a Presidential goal that we , as a country reduce greenhouse emissions by 50% by 2030.  This is an ambitious goal in many respects but it may not be enough to reverse the harm already done.

I'm a firm believer that the American people and the world's can have the type of impact we need.   First they have to take the issue seriously.  This is an issue that has, like everything elae, been politicized.  

There are certain terms Republican use over and over again because they have polls showing it works.  The Green New Deal is one of them.  Most of them have been told it does a lot of things it doesn't.  Still you will hear it attacked over and over again.

We do need to change attitudes about climate and everyday some change.  The exaggerated pronouncements won't go away quickly but they will fade away over time.
