Green New Deal is technologically possible, experts say. But it will cost trillions of dollars, require expansive new taxes and federal programs, and could not be accomplished within the 10-year timeframe that supporters say is necessary. nyti.ms/2SN9aEe
Many of the people responding to this tweet are interpreting it as saying that the story claims climate action is too expensive, or somehow not worth the attempt. That is not what the story says, though it does say the political challenges are daunting. Thanks for reading.
We can always do a better job of distilling our stories down to tweets, but reading the stories themselves is still a very good idea. nytimes.com/2019/02/21/us/…
So again, thanks for reading. The story shows a difficult path ahead for sweeping action on climate change, as it always has been. But the story is anything but a call for inaction. nytimes.com/2019/02/21/us/…
Also, please take a look at the breadth of coverage from NYT Team Climate, where we regularly bring you the science, discuss the urgency of the climate crisis in the U.S. around the world, and explore possible solutions. nytimes.com/section/climate
