Via Tampa Bay Times / US House of Representatives Democrats Introduce Climate Plan - June 30, 2020
Read the Climate Crisis Report and Plan here:
Kathy Castor announcement / Kathy Castor is chair of the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis
June 30, 2020: “We are releasing a transformative roadmap for solving the climate crisis. We have a plan for building the 100% clean energy economy. And we are going to do it in an equitable and inclusive way. Our task is urgent. The last five years are the hottest on record. And it’s getting hotter.
“Greenhouse gases have accumulated in the atmosphere to the point that they are wreaking havoc and costing lives. The pollution and the costly impacts will get worse unless we act and act now. Right now. We have a plan. And it comes at a critical time.
“Our plan will put people back to work and rebuild in a way that benefits all of us. That means environmental justice and our vulnerable communities are at the center of the solutions we propose. The health of our families and the air that we breathe are at the heart of our plan.
“We chart the course to good-paying American jobs in solar and wind energy. In manufacturing American-made clean energy, clean electric vehicles. And in strengthening communities so that they are more resilient to flooding, extreme heat, intense hurricanes and wildfires.
“We must build American and buy American and value workers who have a right to good, family-sustaining jobs and a safe place to work. We must protect America’s public lands and offshore waters rather than exploit them. And renewable energy will empower our lives and it will be cheaper.”
House Democrats just put out the most detailed climate plan in US political history by David Roberts @drvox | [email protected] | June 30, 2020
A new select committee report is perfectly in tune with the growing climate policy alignment on the left around standards, investments, and justice.
Beyond an Incremental Approach to Climate Change
Details of the Democrat's New Plan to Deal with the #ClimateCrisis
The Select Committee on the Climate Crisis' majority staff report is arguably the most comprehensive climate policy plan in American politics, surpassing presidential candidates' proposals and previous congressional white papers in specificity and scope.
Taken together, its policy recommendations would reduce emissions 88% below 2010 levels by 2050 and generate benefits totaling roughly $8 trillion, according to an analysis by Energy Innovation, a nonpartisan environment and energy research firm (E&E Daily, June 30).
The goal is getting the nation to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. That's the target widely agreed upon by Democrats and advocates to avoid the worst effects of climate change, based on science from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
The report encompasses more than 100 bills, and the table of contents alone takes four pages...
