In a year of sweltering heat, withering drought, some of the worst wildfires on record and catastrophic hurricanes that have ravaged our Gulf coast and Mid-Atlantic states, we have one presidential candidate who thinks climate change is a political punch line. The other rightly calls it a threat to our planet. President Obama wants to invest in energy efficiency, promote renewable power and protect our health. He's led the country forward toward each those goals.
Mitt Romney would bet our future on the fossil fuels of the past.
This is a choice between responsibility and recklessness -- and the choice is ours to make.
We can continue to move forward with a clean energy revolution that reduces the carbon pollution that is warming our planet. Or we can turn back the clock on needed change -- and turn our backs on the science and extreme weather before our very eyes.
