More than ever before, voters are demanding action on this crisis.
Indeed, 16 of the 24 Democratic candidates have signed the No Fossil Fuel Money pledge, vowing to refuse contributions from the oil, gas, and coal industries, and 14 candidates support the Green New Deal.
Candidates are unveiling multi-trillion dollar plans to address climate change. Senator Elizabeth Warren presented her climate plan as a means to promote job creation at home by committing to developing and buying American-made emission-free energy products. GovernorJay Inslee's planproposes 100% clean electricity for vehicles and buildings; as well as a"G.I. Bill" that would help those most affected by the transition away from fossil fuels.
Even a business magazine like Forbes is citing Indigenous rights and protecting Native lands as a critical factor in fighting climate change. Analysis demonstrates that communities that are protecting their native lands tend to have forests that have more biological diversity and are healthier. And these forests store more carbon. According to Project Drawdown, protecting native forests equates to protecting 894.4 GT of CO2 reductions and can reduce emissions by 6.91 GT.
