Jokes aside, I got curious about this - when an IPCC assessment report comes out, what do presidents say in the State of the Union address? So I looked back... 🧵
Tonight: some brief mentions of energy transition; next to nothing on impacts or the urgency of the problem. (@robinsonmeyer is right in above thread: this is *how* Joe Biden talks about climate change.)
Notable: no mention of the IPCC report that came out two days ago in #SOTU22. It turns out this is kind of a unique circumstance to have been in, though, because the State of the Union was so late in the year.
