Local weather Rip-off Formally DEAD! New York Occasions SHOCK OPED: ‘Forget Climate Change. Democrats Need to Talk About Other Issues’ – ‘Marks the end of an era’ – Admits ‘American voters largely do not see climate as a top priority’

The Searchlight Institute found that 59 percent of voters in battleground states are “bothered that climate change has become such a political issue,” while only 42 percent are “motivated to do more and support policies to address climate change.” Rather than building a broad coalition necessary to enact something like a Green New Deal, climate change has become yet another issue fueling polarization.
