Last year, Hurricane Florence tore through NC. Hurricane Michael ripped through FL. And floods put Plains states like NE underwater. It will cost US taxpayers billions of dollars just to repair three bases because of those storms. #climatecosts defensenews.com/smr/federal-bu…
The climate crisis poses an existential threat to our country & our planet. We see #climaterisks every day: record floods. Devastating wildfires. Monster storms. It jeopardizes our air, water, homes, businesses, food, infrastructure, economy, & national security. #climatecosts
Even some giant multinational corporations are starting to disclose to their shareholders that climate change will have an enormous effect on their bottom line – & I have a bill to force them all to fess up. #climatecosts nytimes.com/2019/06/04/cli…
It’s time to stop handing out tax breaks to Big Oil & padding corporate profits at our communities’ expense. Investing in clean energy & reducing carbon pollution are investments in our health, our environment, our national security, & our economy. #climaterisks #climatecosts
