[ancianita]

The latest from the MVP of the Senate, Sheldon Whitehouse, on the political negligence and inertia we face by suffering climate cascading catastrophes, and what those catastrophes' huge costs are to Americans nationwide for subsidizing fossil fuel pollution with $660,000,000,000 per year.
DeLoitte estimates at current costs of inaction on climate catastrophes will cost the world $220 TRILLION BY 2070.

2. Fabulous argument and pin point accuracy in his presentation about ACTION

that has to be taken, and CAN be taken. It's not hopeless, just follow his directives.

I don't understand how so many take to the streets for issues that will never matter, if they are walking on what will one day be, the ocean floor.

Some we can not stop already, there is much we can still do. How long will that be true?
