Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

I still can’t get over how bad the climate change section of the debate was last night. This is the consequence of no climate questions in debates for years. The questions were childish, no follow-up questions for basic information, & there was almost no talk of solutions.

Journalists:“How do you feel about the Green New Deal” is not a climate change question. Try: “What is your plan to bring down emissions?” so voters actually understand if a candidate even *has* a plan for the worst impending crisis of our time, and can share what it is.

Government is the greatest environmental pollluter in America. Can we start there?

Agree. It is also sad that GOP constantly converts questions about our earth and its well being to answers about parks. As if the earth only existed as a backyard for play and is not the sustaining force of our lives.

Gotta agree here. More direct questions to give better insight is a good idea

AOC will fight for the climate. We needed her and Bernie’s plan. We didn’t get it. We will regret it

Sitting at home not working is so great for the climate. Who needs food and rent money?

Also we need to stop asking for opinions on climate change and start asking if politicians UNDERSTAND climate change.
