Statement From Ken Berlin, President And CEO Of The Climate Reality Project, On H.R. 9, The Climate Action Now Act

“The Climate Action Now Act is a bold and critical first step toward helping the US meet its commitments under the Paris Agreement and eventually restoring the United States to a leadership role when it comes to global climate action. While it will not reverse the Trump Administration’s dangerous rejection of climate science, the bill sends an important message, bolstered by overwhelming support from the majority of Americans: When it comes to the climate crisis, it’s time for the federal government to step up and lead.”
