Green New Deal? Not a yes or no question
As someone who supports action at every level to counter climate change, I am dismayed at the reaction to the proposed "Green New Deal."
The Congress and Americans generally should not want a simple up or down vote on this package of ideas but rather an intense and substantive discussion of how we need to move forward to literally protect and even save our modern world.
This is not a Democratic policy proposal to be automatically shot down by Republicans. Climate change actions must overcome our current, insane partisanship. We've got to get this policy issue right.
