Instead of running from climate, politicians should highlight its importance

In a critical election year for both the United States and Europe, climate policies are conspicuously absent from campaigns on both sides of the Atlantic. This omission is particularly stark considering the undeniable and mounting evidence of climate change's impacts, and the fact that time is running out for us to act swiftly and decisively on climate change.

In the U.S., there’s a tabling of sound climate policy in order to cater to and appease voters in national elections later this year.
