Climate change choice

On July 22 we saw the record for hottest global recorded temperature broken yet again, and unfortunately, it won’t be for the last time.


Since we are at the end of an El Nino cycle, it’s clear that anthropogenic climate change is the culprit here. The Biden administration’s policy on this issue has been mixed passing the Inflation Reduction Act, while simultaneously being rather friendly towards fossil fuel companies by approving the Willow Project and the Mountain Valley pipeline.


Nevertheless, our only chance of breaking this fever is to elect Kamala Harris this November. If Project 2025 comes to pass, all of the climate gains of the past four years will be reversed and then some.


Then again, if Trump wins, perhaps the ultimate poetic justice would be for rising seas to claim Mar-a-Lago.
