"On the issue of climate change, it’s time for the political consensus to catch up to the scientific one. The facts are well established: our planet is warming in dangerous ways, and our reliance on dirty sources of energy is the root cause. It is time for our political leaders to recognize both the implications and the opportunities of this reality – and to act with the urgency, the courage and the cooperation that this moment requires."
